DETROIT -- Marek Zidlicky's power-play goal 1:09 into overtime lifted the Detroit Red Wings to a 2-1 victory over the New York Rangers on Wednesday night.

Zidlicky, making his Red Wings debut after being acquired at the NHL trade deadline from New Jersey, punched the puck past goalie Cam Talbot in a scrum to give the Red Wings their second straight win.

Justin Abdelkader also scored, and Henrik Zetterberg added two assists, and Jimmy Howard made 39 saves for Detroit.

Talbot made 29 saves for the Rangers, whose lone goal was scored by defenseman Dan Girardi.

The Red Wings played the final 46 seconds of regulation on a power play after Derek Stepan held Gustav Nyquist. The advantage carried into overtime, and Zidlicky cashed in on Detroit's third shot.

SENATORS 3, JETS 1

WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- Rookie Andrew Hammond made 35 saves, and Kyle Turris had a goal and assist as Ottawa beat Winnipeg.

Bobby Ryan and Erik Condra also scored for Ottawa (28-23-11), which came off a 3-2 shootout loss on Tuesday at Minnesota. The Senators are 6-0-1 in their last seven games. With 67 points, Ottawa is four points out of a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference playoff race.

Michael Frolik netted the only goal against Hammond, scoring early in the third period after the Senators built a 3-0 lead.

Hammond, 6-0-1 since his first start on Feb. 18, started his seventh straight game because Craig Anderson is sidelined with a hand injury.

Michael Hutchinson made his fifth straight start for Winnipeg (32-21-12), but was replaced by Ondrej Pavelec with 8:06 left in the second period after Condra made it 3-0.
