Fluky bounce gives Red Wings goal in Game 4

DETROIT (AP) This bounce was unkind to Ben Bishop.

The Tampa Bay goalie was victimized by a fluky goal in the second period against Detroit on Thursday night in Game 4 of their playoff series. Joakim Andersson's shot bounced routinely off Bishop and up in the air, but when Bishop tried to bat the puck away with his stick, he instead accidentally knocked it back off the crossbar.

The puck fell to the ice and slowly slid across the goal line, with defenseman Jason Garrison unable to clear it.

Andersson's goal gave the Red Wings a 2-0 lead.
