Lucas Raymond scored on a power play with 1:25 remaining in overtime to give the host Detroit Red Wings a 2-1 win over the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night.

Raymond scored from the slot after the Flames were called for having too many men on the ice.

Alex DeBrincat had a goal and an assist, while Cam Talbot stopped 24 shots as the Red Wings extended their winning streak against the Flames to five.

Connor Zary scored for the Flames and Dan Vladar made 25 saves. Despite the loss, Calgary scored its sixth power-play goal in its last five games.

Detroit forward Patrick Kane missed his second consecutive game with an upper-body injury.

The Red Wings scored on their first power play at 6:33 of the opening period after Calgary's Matt Coronato was penalized for tripping. Stationed near the goal post, Michael Rasmussen passed the puck to the left circle, where DeBrincat one-timed it past Vladar's stick. Raymond had the second assist.

DeBrincat's goal was his ninth of the season and 10th against Calgary in 17 career games.

The Flames committed two other penalties in the first 10 minutes but the Red Wings' third power play was cut short by a penalty of their own.

Flames defenseman Daniil Miromanov got behind the Wings defense late in the period but Talbot gloved his wrist shot.

Vladar made a diving stop against Rasmussen to snuff out a two-on-one situation midway through the second period.

Calgary was awarded its second power play when Ben Chiarot was called for tripping with 4:30 left in the period. The Flames failed to get a shot on goal during that span, however.

The Flames got another power play opportunity with 12:57 remaining in the third when Moritz Seider was called for tripping. Calgary got off two shots on goal during those two minutes but still couldn't solve Talbot.

After Dylan Larkin was called for a faceoff violation, the Flames broke through with 2:48 left. Zary scored his fifth goal this season with a blast from the left side. MacKenzie Weegar and Yegor Sharangovich had the assists.
