Young players attract notice as Red Wings beat Bruins

Detroit — If you’re a believer in the Red Wings’ future, you had to love this game.

Evgeny Svechnikov scored his second consecutive winning goal Saturday, this time in overtime, as the Red Wings defeated the Boston Bruins, 4-3.

Svechnikov one-timed a pass from Luke Glendening out of the corner at 1 minute, 42 seconds in overtime, giving the Wings their third consecutive exhibition victory.

And it was many of the Wings’ prized prospects doing all the scoring.

Filip Zadina (power play), Dennis Cholowski, Vili Saarijarvi and Svechnikov scored the Wings’ goals.

The future was clearly on display.
