Overview
- Danielson scored his first NHL goal in his fifth game to help Detroit beat Seattle 4-2 at Little Caesars Arena.
- A subsequent end-to-end finish was erased after a Seattle challenge confirmed Emmitt Finnie was offside on the zone entry.
- Danielson later set up Finnie for a power-play strike that broke a 2-2 tie in the second period.
- His credited goal came on a double deflection, as Axel Sandin-Pellikka's point shot glanced off Mason Appleton before deflecting in off Danielson's left shin.
- The victory lifted the Red Wings into the Atlantic Division lead, and McLellan called Danielson "a player that can be trusted."
