This road trip ended up in weird fashion for the Red Wings on Tuesday — and a loss.
Logan Couture scored one minute into overtime for San Jose, with an octopus that a fan threw onto the ice laying by the boards, giving the Sharks a 3-2 overtime win over the Wings.
Officials also took a lengthy review of the goal, because of a possible Sharks offside, but the decision was an allowed goal.
The Wings earned one point in this game thanks to the goaltending of Alex Nedeljkovic, who stopped 39 shots.
Nick Leddy gave the Wings a 2-1 lead early in the third period with his first goal as Wing.
