Mantha scores in overtime as Detroit Red Wings top Montreal Canadiens 2-1
MONTREAL — Anthony Mantha has been struggling of late but he came up big for the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday night.
The burly winger scored at 4:10 of overtime to lift the Red Wings to a 2-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens with his first goal since March 4 and only his second since Feb. 12.
“It feels really good,” said the Montreal-area native. “The last few games were a little harder, but I had to battle through it.
“I did a good job of moving my feet and putting shots on net. It’s the little details that I was doing earlier in the season.”
