Apr 14, 2025; Detroit, Michigan, USA; Dallas Stars defenseman Lian Bichsel (6) scores a goal on Detroit Red Wings goaltender Cam Talbot (39) during the first period at Little Caesars Arena. Mandatory Credit: Brian Bradshaw Sevald-Imagn Images Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider each had a goal and two assists and the Detroit Red Wings won their home finale, beating the Dallas Stars 6-4 on Monday.
Jonatan Berggren added a goal and an assist and Albert Johansson, Alex DeBrincat and Vladimir Tarasenko also scored for Detroit (38-35-7, 83 points), which was already eliminated from playoff contention. Cam Talbot made 24 saves as the Red Wings logged a second consecutive victory.
Colin Blackwell, Lian Bichsel, Evgenii Dadonov and Wyatt Johnston scored for the Stars (50-25-6, 106 points) , who have lost six straight (0-4-2). Jake Oettinger stopped 31 shots. The Stars will face the Colorado Avalanche in the first round of the playoffs.
Detroit emerged from the first period with a 2-1 advantage.
The Red Wings struck first at 4:27. Dylan Larkin passed the puck to Johansson, who skated in from the blue line and fired a shot that eluded Oettinger's glove.
Jamie Benn appeared to score his 400th goal, but it was eventually credited to Bichsel. Benn eluded a defender and patiently waited for Talbot to commit, then jammed the puck inside the goalpost. It rolled across the goal line and Bichsel tapped it in.
DeBrincat's 37th goal at 13:52 put Detroit back on top. Patrick Kane backhanded a pass from the right circle to the slot, where DeBrincat fired the puck past Oettinger's pads.
Dadonov scored his 20th goal midway through the second period to tie it at 2-apiece. Roope Hintz took a shot from the point, and Dadonov deflected the puck over Talbot's shoulder.
Blackwell gave the Stars a 3-2 lead at 11:25 of the middle period on a short-handed goal. With Benn in the penalty box, Talbot misplayed a puck from behind the net and Blackwell scored from short range.
Berggren knotted the score at 1:15 of the third. He blasted a one-timer from the right circle off a Raymond feed.
With Dadonov serving a tripping penalty, Seider gave Detroit a 4-3 lead at 4:19. Seider's shot eluded Oettinger's right shoulder.
Raymond made it 5-3 with a shot from the right circle past Oettinger's glove.
Johnston cut Dallas' deficit to one when he scored on a rebound of a Benn shot at 12:56.
Tarasenko's empty-netter at 18:04 clinched the Red Wings' victory.
