Jonatan Berggren scored with 36 seconds left in the third period and the Detroit Red Wings extended their winning streak to three games with a 5-4 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets.

A blocked shot plus a diving play by former Blue Jackets forward Tyler Motte led to a breakaway goal at the end from Jonathan Berggren that won the game, 5-4, for the Red Wings with 35.7 seconds left.

Columbus has 16 victories this year, and 10 of them have been against teams that made it to the Stanley Cup Playoffs a season ago.

The Detroit Red Wings visit the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight for the first of three meetings between the two teams.
