Detroit Red Wings' defenseman improvises for rare goal in second straight win

A Madison Bowey goal is a rare occurrence. Scoring from his knees?

The last time he did that was somewhere on a pond in Winnipeg, where he grew up.

"Probably when I was 5 or 6 years old," he said. "That doesn't happen too often."

That's exactly the position the Detroit Red Wings defenseman found himself in. Bowey, skating in from the point, got tripped by William Carrier but managed to beat Vegas goalie Malcolm Subban for his first goal of the season.
