What a difference a year makes. Late last December, the Wings were booed off the ice. Now, they're tied atop the Eastern Conference.

Dylan Larkin tied the game late in third period off a blind, between-the-legs pass from James van Riemsdyk, then won it for Detroit Red Wings in OT.

The Dallas Wings could take UCLA center Lauren Betts with the No. 1 overall pick in the WNBA Draft this spring, but there are a few flaws in her game that need to be worked on before the end of her senior season. CBS Sports writer Jack Maloney believes Betts could be a liability if WNBA teams force her to leave the post on defense.

The Red Wings tied it twice in the third period on the power play. First when Emmitt Finnie scored at 3:02, and then when Larkin notched his first of the game with 4:03 remaining in regulation, on a slick between-the-skates backhand pass from James van Riemsdyk, who had opened the scoring in the first period.

Paige Bueckers opens up about Christmas traditions, family time, and a meaningful gift that still impacts her WNBA journey today.

But in a huge year for women's athletics, Paige Bueckers stands out near the top. The Athletic compiled a list of the biggest sports moments of the year for women, and naturally, Paige Bueckers was near the top.

DETROIT – Lineup decisions are becoming a bit more difficult for the Detroit Red Wings, which is always a good thing because it means the team is playing well.

After backing up netminder Cam Talbot in the nation’s capital, goalie John Gibson is set to start for the Red Wings on Tuesday. The 32-year-old is riding a personal seven-game winning streak, an impressive stretch during which he’s posted a 2.00 goals-against average, .934 save percentage and two shutouts.

Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers is back in the national spotlight. Some may even say the global stage. Bueckers is participating with Team USA's senior national team, an honor she had a chance to reflect on when speaking to reporters during a recent media scrum.
