  "account": "In a crucial 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday, the Detroit Red Wings secured their second win of the season. The win pushes the Red Wings within three points of a playoff spot. Despite losing their previous six games, the Flyers now have a losing record of 0-6-3, putting them at risk of plummeting to the bottom of the NHL's Eastern Conference.\n\nAndrew Copp scored the game-winning goal in the third period, marking his first goal since March 19. This goal was his first since March 19, Michael Rasmussen assisted with his first point since January 5, and Nate Danielson added a secondary assist, his second of the season. Matvei Michkov scored the opening tally in the first period, while Anton Johansson tied the game with a one-timer in the second period.\n\nThe Red Wings went with 11 forwards and seven defensemen for the game. Carter Mazur was the forward who did not play. Johansson's goal was his first in the NHL, making him the third Red Wings player to score in the season, following William Wallinder and Michael Brandsegg-Nygard.\n\nWith the win, the Red Wings' defense held strong, as they held the Flyers power play to a combined 0-for-5. Detroit themselves were unable to capitalize on three opportunities, while Philadelphia failed to convert on two of their chances. The Red Wings have one more home game this week, facing the San Jose Sharks on Saturday at 7 p.m.",
