That changed real quickly.
The Red Wings were about two minutes from winning a hockey game Thursday, then suddenly saw it taken away, as Los Angeles defeated the Wings 3-2 in overtime.
Kings forward Alex Iafallo's goal 23 seconds into overtime won it. Drew Doughty fired a shot from the slot that caromed off the glass behind the net, landed at the post, and Iafallo tapped the puck past goalie Jonathan Bernier.
The Kings were able to reach overtime when Adrian Kempe put back a rebound at 18 minutes, 12 seconds of the third period.
