Ottawa beat Detroit – Watch the crazy dream goal

NHL Hockey at the Globe – Then the crowd was treated to a crazy swing event.

Detroit rallied from an 0-4 deficit in eight minutes, but eventually lost in overtime.

Ottawa’s Tim Stutzle made it 5-4 with a wonderful goal from a direct shot.

Yes, it was an eventful evening to say the least at the defunct Avicii Arena, when the first four-man NHL game was played on Swedish soil in the coming days.

Ottawa got off to a strong start with a 3-0 lead in the first period, and before the crowd had barely settled down halfway through, the score was also 4-0.

But then the Swede in Detroit, just now, steps forward.

Gothenburger Lucas Raymond’s sublime goal – a drive of his own from the midfield into the attacking area, finished off with a quick wrist shot – was the starting point for a complete change of scenery.

Before the end of the second half, suddenly the score was 4-4 on the scoreboard.

One of the goals was scored beautifully by Alex DeBrincat, who left Ottawa for Detroit – his hometown – this summer.

“Two thousand, two thousand, two thousand.”

The third period was dramatically scoreless, but with just seconds remaining in overtime, the decision came. It was Ottawa that got the last word, after all. German star Tim Stutzle elegantly smashed the puck in tennis.

And so he saved DJ Smith’s job?

The Senators coach was criticized by fans and Ramsan’s “Fire DJ” was the first in Ottawa’s home arena recently.

But at the Globe there was an invitation to another coach in the booth: Daniel Alfredsson. The club icon was moved behind the players’ benches in the globe and was greeted with “Alfie, Alfie, Alfie” several times by the crowd.

In the pre-match press conference, Nicklas Lidstrom made reporters laugh when he “translated” from Swedish into English what Alfredsson – who was sitting next to him on the podium – had just said.

– Alfie said: Maybe I’ll wear my skates tonight!

So he didn’t. But things are still going well for Ottawa.
