Petr Mrazek made 23 saves in his first start back with the Red Wings after being acquired from Chicago on Friday. He was selected by Detroit in the fifth round of the 2010 draft and played with the team for more than five seasons.

KRAKEN 5, CANADIENS 4, OT

SEATTLE (AP) — Brandon Mountour had the fastest goal in NHL overtime history, scoring his second goal of the game four seconds into overtime to give Seattle a comeback victory over Montreal.

Chandler Stephenson won the faceoff, with the puck going to Montour. He streaked in on goalie Jakub Dobes and beat him with a shot to the upper-right corner. The goal matches the fastest to start any period in NHL history.

Seattle overcame two-goal deficit to tie it in the third period. Jani Nyman, making his NHL debut, scored on a power play with 9:07 left, and Matty Beniers tipped in a hard shot by Vince Dunn on a power play with 2:12 left to tie it at 4.

Montour also opened the scoring 4:14 into the game and had two assists. Eeli Tolvanan scored his career-high 19th for Seattle, and Joey Daccord made 21 saves.

Montreal scored four straight goals to take a 4-2 lead. Juraj Slafkovsky scored twice and Patrik Laine and Alex Newhook also connected. Dubes made 30 saves.

SYDNEY (AP) — Ex-International cricketer Stuart MacGill has been found guilty of taking part in the supply of cocaine in Sydney.

The 54-year-old MacGill, a leg-spin bowler who played 44 test matches for Australia and took 208 wickets, was cleared by a jury of knowingly taking part in the supply of a large commercial quantity of a prohibited drug but found guilty of of participating in the supply of a prohibited drug.

The charge related to an April 2021 introduction he made between a cocaine dealer and another person.

A jury in the New South Wales District Court on Thursday heard that while MacGill’s involvement was limited to the introduction, the dealer also took part in two other alleged supplies.

MacGill, who pleaded not guilty, is expected to return to court in May to be sentenced.

The former test cricket star made headlines in 2021 when he was allegedly kidnapped, assaulted and threatened with a gun before being released. New South Wales state police arrested and charged four men in relation to the incident.

MacGill's international career from 1988 to 2008 was largely overshadowed by fellow Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne, who is second on the list of all-time leading wicket takers in test cricket.
