Talbot stops 28 shots as Red Wings beat Lightning 2-0

Marco Kasper scores power-play goal vs. Lightning

Marco Kasper redirected J.T. Compher's shot at 9:55 of the second period, and Michael Rasmussen scored an empty-netter in the final minute to clinch Detroit's victory.

Andrei Vasilevskiy made 29 saves for the Lightning, who were shut out for the first time this season and have lost three of four since beating the Red Wings 5-1 on Jan. 18.

Detroit forward Patrick Kane missed his second consecutive game due to an upper body injury.

Takeaways Lightning: Nikita Kucherov saw his point streak end at 11 games. He had six goals and 13 assists during that span.

Red Wings: Kasper, a rookie selected with the No. 8 overall pick in the 2022 draft, was moved to the first line with Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond shortly after Todd McLellan was named head coach late last month. He's benefited from the promotion, scoring five goals in the last nine games.

Key moment Red Wings defenseman Albert Johansson blocked four shots in the final 1:35 after Vasilevskiy was pulled for an extra skater.

Key stat The Lightning were blanked for the first time since Nov. 14, 2023, when they lost 5-0 to St. Louis.

Up Next Lightning host Chicago on Tuesday to begin a five-game homestand, and Red Wings host Los Angeles on Monday.
