MONTREAL — For all they did to make their dads cheer, the Detroit Red Wings made it difficult on themselves.
It began well enough Thursday at Centre Bell when the Wings built an early lead on the Montreal Canadiens, but neither the first nor the second nor the third one built much momentum. It wasn't until halfway through overtime that Robby Fabbri secured a celebration, ending it at 4-3.
It's the second straight game the Wings have won in overtime.
Michael Rasmussen, Jonatan Berggren and Oskar Sundqvist scored through two periods, but the Wings also let a 5 foot 9 seventh-round draft pick look like a superstar in that stretch.
