The Detroit Red Wings have banked six points against two elite opponents as the NHL's Christmas break commences.

The Red Wings tied it twice in the third period on the power play. First when Emmitt Finnie scored at 3:02, and then when Larkin notched his first of the game with 4:03 remaining in regulation, on a slick between-the-skates backhand pass from James van Riemsdyk, who had opened the scoring in the first period.

Detroit Red Wings rookie Emmitt Finnie scored another goal in Tuesday evening's 4-3 overtime win over the Dallas Stars.

Dylan Larkin scored the tying goal late in the third period and then got the winner 34 seconds into overtime to rally Detroit Red Wings to a 4-3 victory over the Dallas Stars for their third straight win.

Van Riemsdyk staked the Red Wings to a 1-0 lead in the first period by flipping in a shot from the side of the net at 9:23. It was his ninth goal. Michael Rasmussen set it up nicely by lugging the puck up ice, passing to himself off the boards, skating behind the net and making a one-handed pass to van Riemsdyk.

Dylan Larkin tied the game late in third period off a blind, between-the-legs pass from James van Riemsdyk, then won it for Detroit Red Wings in OT.

Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers is back in the national spotlight. Some may even say the global stage. Bueckers is participating with Team USA's senior national team, an honor she had a chance to reflect on when speaking to reporters during a recent media scrum.

DETROIT -- Sleigh-riding into the NHL’s holiday break with plenty of confidence and still the tree topper of the Atlantic Division, the Detroit Red Wings stretched their winning streak to three straight contests with a 4-3 overtime victory against the Dallas Stars at Little Caesars Arena on Tuesday night.

As the Red Wings continue to string victories together and work on ending a long playoff drought, there might be something equally important going on.

After backing up netminder Cam Talbot in the nation’s capital, goalie John Gibson is set to start for the Red Wings on Tuesday. The 32-year-old is riding a personal seven-game winning streak, an impressive stretch during which he’s posted a 2.00 goals-against average, .934 save percentage and two shutouts.

Today, they’re leading the Atlantic Division, coming off back-to-back victories over Washington and have a renewed confidence and swagger as coach Todd McLellan approaches his one-year anniversary on the job. The culture has changed dramatically in 12 months.
