Zidlicky's OT goal gives Red Wings 2-1 win over Rangers

Zidlicky, making his Red Wings debut after being acquired at the NHL trade deadline from New Jersey, punched the puck past Rangers goalie Cam Talbot in a scrum to give the Red Wings their second straight win. Talbot made 29 saves for the Rangers, whose lone goal was scored by defenseman Dan Girardi. The Red Wings played the final 46 seconds of regulation on a power play after Derek Stepan held Gustav Nyquist. The play began when Jonathan Ericsson intercepted a clearing attempt in the New York zone. Girardi tied it with 2:58 left in the first during a power play when he redirected a puck that bounced off Red Wings defenseman Kyle Quincey's skate. Nyquist later missed on a breakaway and then sent a centering pass near the net early in the third period, but Stephen Weiss couldn't finish. The Rangers, who topped Nashville 4-1 at home on Monday, tied the idle New York Islanders for first place in the Metropolitan Division by earning the overtime point.
