On Monday, Kasper scored twice, giving the Wings a crucial insurance goal with 9:55 left in the game. The play shows how Kasper dug out his own rebound, after getting a solid shot on goal.

Kasper took a chip pass from Lucas Raymond and headed down the ice on a 2-on-1. Kasper sold the pass, took the shot, then picked up his own rebound to score his first of the night.

He added an empty netter to seal the victory for the Wings. His efforts earned him the game’s second star.

#1 Lucas Raymond

Lucas Raymond exploded for four points on Monday night against the Kings. He registered a goal and three assists to power the Wings.

Raymond got the Wings on the board late in the first period to cut the Kings’ lead in half. The goal came on a rebound in front of the Kings’ goal, with none of the LA defenders picking up Raymond on the play. Raymond’s strong performance made him the game’s first star.

The Red Wings will be back in action on Thursday night as they visit the Edmonton Oilers.
