The big power forward is often found skating around with his mouth guard half hanging out of his mouth looking for an opportunity to unleash his wicked wrist shot. The Detroit Red Wings trailed by two goals entering the third period Saturday night in Carolina when Mantha found paydirt twice in a three-minute span to knot the game up at three.
The game would stay that way until the skills competition, where Frans Nielsen was the lone goal scorer during the shootout. The victory would be the first time in the rich history of the Detroit Red Wings they would come from behind by two goals to win in three consecutive games.
