It was a massive goalscoring night for the Detroit Red Wings in their 6-3 win against the Vegans Golden Knights.
Here are all six goals from the victory.
#1 Gustav Nyquist
A quick break for the Wings turns into the first goal of the game as Henrik Zetterberg dishes it to Nyquist who puts way his first goal of the season.
.@GNyquist’s first of the season is a beauty. #LGRW

The captain makes it look easy as he puts this one v. one opportunity past the goaltender for this third of the season.

#4 Frans Nielsen
For the second consecutive game, Nielsen got on the score sheet as he races out of the penalty box and finishes off a two v. one opportunity with a nice feed from Zetterberg who would record a four-point night.
Nielsen, fresh out of the box, gives us a 4-3 lead. 🎉 #LGRW

#6 Luke Glendening
Glendening came up big for the Wings once again after scoring the game-winner against the Arizona Coyotes just the night before. Here he snipes one past Marc-Andre Fleury with a fantastic finish.
