Game 14: Blues @ Red Wings (RECAP)

The Detroit Red Wings surrendered a two-goal lead in the third period to lose 5-4 in regulation against the St. Louis Blues at Little Caesars Arena. St. Louis initially opened the scoring with a goal from Dalibor Dvorsky before Detroit answered with goals from J.T. Compher, Keegan Kolesar, and Lucas Raymond to build a 3-1 lead. Jimmy Snuggerud trimmed the deficit late in the second period, but Emmitt Finnie pushed Detroit's advantage back to 4-2 early in the third.

The Blues mounted a rapid late comeback, scoring three unanswered goals from Pavel Buchnevich, Justin Barron, and a subsequent go-ahead marker to secure the 5-4 victory. The author criticized Detroit goaltender John Gibson's performance and the team's late-game lapses as the Red Wings failed to find an equalizer with their net empty in the closing minutes.
