Red Wings Rally and Tie Blues

From Associated Press

Vyacheslav Kozlov scored two goals that counted, two that didn’t and also managed to kill yet another Detroit Red Wing goal.

Nevertheless, the Red Wings still rallied Monday night and tied the St. Louis Blues, 4-4, at Detroit.

The tie ended a five-game losing streak for the Red Wings, their longest since January 1991.

Kozlov’s second goal tied it with 9:13 to play, bringing Detroit back from a 4-2 deficit in the second period. He also had two apparent scores wiped out by video review, and took a penalty that negated teammate Steve Yzerman’s goal--all in a first period in which St. Louis was awarded a goal after a video review.

Chris Pronger had two goals and an assist for the Blues, who are 0-5-5 in their last 10 road games.
