ST. PAUL, Minn., Jan. 30 (UPI) -- Andreas Lilja scored his first goal as a Red Wing Monday to help Detroit defeat the Minnesota Wild, 5-4.

Robert Lang, Mikael Samuelsson and Henrik Zetterberg each had a goal and an assist and Steve Yzerman scored the 200th power-play goal of his career for Detroit, which has won two of its last three games.

Chris Osgood made seven saves, but was pulled in the second period in favor of Manny Legace, who stopped five shots for the Red Wings.

For the Wild, Marian Gaborik and Todd White scored, and Manny Fernandez stopped 12 shots before being yanked after giving up four first-period goals.

Dwayne Roloson made 12 saves in relief and both Andrei Zyuzin and Filip Kuba added goals for the Wild, who have lost two straight following a five-game winning streak.
