Taylor Hall and Jalen Chatfield also scored for Carolina before Eric Robinson’s empty-net goal with 1:11 remaining. Jesperi Kotkaniemi had two assists and Frederik Andersen made 24 saves.

Alex DeBrincat and Michael Rasmussen scored for the Red Wings, who’ve lost seven of their last eight games. Petr Mrazek, in his second game since last week’s arrival in a trade from Chicago, made 28 saves against one of his former teams.

Trailing 1-0 after the first period, Hall scored 22 seconds into the second period as Carolina scored three goals in 12 minutes.

OILERS 2, ISLANDERS 1, OT

Calvin Pickard finished with 24 saves to help the Oilers win for the fourth time in seven games.

Bo Horvat scored for the Islanders and Ilya Sorokin finished with 33 saves. New York lost its third straight.

In the extra period, Draisaitl got a pass from Connor McDavid and skated up and beat Sorokin for his NHL-leading 49th goal of the season.

The Oilers outshot the Islanders 17-6 in a scoreless first period, and Draisaitl got them on the scoreboard with a slap shot from the top of the left circle at 8:46 of the second.

Horvat tied it 1-1 for the Islanders at 1:21 of the third as he skated up the right side on a 2-on-1 break with Anthony Duclair, kept the puck and beat Pickard for his 21st.
