DETROIT -- Brandon Tanev is an undrafted rookie fourth line player who stole the show Friday night.

Tanev's second goal of the game, with 1:16 left, broke a tie and led the Winnipeg Jets to a 5-3, come-from-behind win over the Detroit Red Wings on Friday night at Joe Louis Arena.

"The resiliency of this group is incredible," Tanev said. "We didn't stop pushing. That's the thing."

They were the first two goals of Tanev's career, in his 15th game.

"This is my first time playing at Joe Louis Arena and to get my first goal and then that ..." Tanev said. "It's just a great feeling."

Patrik Laine, Mark Scheifele and Nikolaj Ehlers also scored for Winnipeg (5-6-1). Goalie Connor Hellebuyck, who is from the Detroit-area suburb of Commerce Township, stopped 30 shots.

"The players did a great job of shutting the game down in the first period," Jets coach Paul Maurice said. "... I really enjoyed this win from a coach's standpoint."

Luke Glendening, Henrik Zetterberg and Justin Abdelkader scored for Detroit (6-5-1), which lost its fourth straight (0-3-1). Goaltender Petr Mrazek made 26 saves.

"You've got to play a complete game in this league. Players are too good and will make you pay if you make mistakes and turn the pucks over," Abdelkader said. "We've got to be better that way but there's lots of things to build off of the last few games. It's a long season. We'll be better and get ready for Sunday (when the Red Wings host the Edmonton Oilers)."

Tanev scored the winner on a breakaway, beating Mrazek on the glove side.

Ehlers scored an empty-net goal in the last minute. It was his third goal.

Tanev's first goal of the game, with 7:36 left in the third period, tied the game 3-3. After he beat Mrazek under the crossbar from in close, the puck went in and out so fast play continued for about a minute. After a stoppage, the play was reviewed and called a goal.

Abdelkader gave Detroit a 3-2 lead 9:12 into the third period.

Scheifele tied the game 2-2 earlier in the third period. It was his sixth goal and was also reviewed.

"I thought we started really well. Even in the second it felt like we carried the play at times. Then in the third for whatever reason, I thought we fell back a little bit," said Detroit defenseman Niklas Kronwall, who made his season debut after being bothered by a sore knee, "In saying that, I don't know how many great scoring chances they had. But they came out winning. Two points are what you need and we didn't get that."

Zetterberg gave the Red Wings a 2-1 lead 9:40 into the second period. He batted the rebound of Tomas Tatar's shot out of midair and into the net.

The goal was originally waved off because it was first indicated that Zetterberg's stick was higher than the crossbar. But referees Chris Lee and Ghislain Hebert and linesmen Tim Nowak and Ryan Galloway huddled and immediately reversed the call. The goal call was then upheld by the NHL Situation Room in Toronto.

It was the Detroit captain's second goal in two games.

Glendening gave Detroit a 1-0 lead 3:04 into the game when he deflected defenseman Dan DeKeyser's shot/pass from the left point past Hellebuyck. It was Glendening's first goal of the season.

Laine tied the score 1-1 with 4:30 left in the first period. He beat Mrazek with a wrist shot from the left circle off the rush.

It was Laine's seventh goal, which leads all NHL rookies this season.

Hellebuyck stopped center Darren Helm on a breakaway about five minutes into the opening period.
