An emotional day segued into a challenging evening.
The Detroit Red Wings played their first game Thursday since losing two teammates to trades, their fate once again to be sellers as another trade deadline rolls around. They chased and rallied against the Seattle Kraken before succumbing in overtime, 5-4.
Oliver Bjorkstrand scored in the extra period while Moritz Seider was serving a penalty.
Ben Chiarot, Adam Erne, Jonatan Berggren and Jake Walman replied to Kraken goals through two periods. Ville Husso made his 29th save as a loose puck slid along the gaol line in his crease late in the third period, covering it up with his glove.
