Warren Foegele scored two second-period goals and the visiting Edmonton Oilers defeated the Detroit Red Wings 5-2 on Tuesday night.
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Evander Kane each had a goal and an assist. Ryan McLeod also scored for the Oilers, who are 8-0-1 in their last nine games. Jack Campbell made 30 saves.
Tyler Bertuzzi and Joe Veleno scored for the Red Wings. Ville Husso stopped 21 shots.
Bertuzzi scored the only goal of the first period. Dylan Larkin, who had a hat trick in the All-Star Game, dug the puck away from the boards and passed it to Lucas Raymond. He backhanded a pass in front to Bertuzzi, who one-timed it past Campbell at 10:24 for his second goal.
The Oilers scored twice in a 36-second span early in the second period with the first coming on a power play. Philip Broberg set up McLeod's ninth goal with a pass from the left circle. McLeod skated into the slot and fired the puck past Husso. Kane collected the second assist.
Foegele finished off a 2-on-1 break with the one-timer for his first goal of the game. Nugent-Hopkins set him up.
The Oilers made it 3-1 at 11:55 of the period. Vincent Desharnais flicked a shot from the point that deflected off Foegele and past Husso. Broberg was credited with the second assist.
Veleno scored with nine seconds left in the period, just after the Red Wings killed off a penalty. Moritz Seider collected the puck along the blue line, fought off a defender and found Veleno in the left circle. He beat Campbell with a low shot for his seventh goal. Jake Walman had the second assist.
Campbell made a glove save against Jonatan Berggren midway through the third to keep Edmonton on top.
With Michael Rasmussen in the penalty box for interference, the Oilers got some breathing room with 4:22 remaining. Nugent-Hopkins scored his 23rd goal off Tyson Barrie's pass from the point. Connor McDavid had the other assist.
Kane scored an empty-netter with 2:37 left.
