Stefan Noesen scored the go-ahead goal late in the second period and the visiting New Jersey Devils held on for a 5-4 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Friday afternoon.

Dougie Hamilton, Timo Meier, Nico Hischier and Jack Hughes each had a goal and an assist for New Jersey, which won for the ninth time in 12 games. Jacob Markstrom made 24 saves.

Vladimir Tarasenko, Lucas Raymond, Tyler Motte and Justin Holl had the goals for Detroit, which had won three of its previous four games. Tarasenko and J.T. Compher (two assists) each had a two-point performance. Cam Talbot, playing in his 500th career game, made 24 saves.

Tarasenko scored his first goal in 17 games after the Devils' Brenden Dillon was penalized for crosschecking. Tarasenko ripped a shot from the edge of the left circle past Markstrom. Jeff Petry and Compher had the assists.

Raymond made it 2-0 on a wraparound attempt. The puck bounced off Meier's skate and past Markstrom.

New Jersey got on the board with Holl in the penalty box for hooking. Hamilton sent a shot from the right side that whistled past Talbot as a Devils player bumped into him. The Red Wings challenged on the basis of goalie interference but the goal stood.

That resulted in another power play for the Devils and they cashed in when Meier's shot from the right circle bounced off a defender's stick and by Talbot.

Shortly after the Devils killed off another Detroit power play, the Red Wings took a 3-2 lead early in the second period. Motte was credited with his first goal of the season, tipping in a Ben Chiarot shot from the point.

The Devils tied it midway through the period as Meier set up Hischier, who wristed the puck from the slot past Talbot.

New Jersey took a 4-3 lead when Noesen knocked in the puck with his knee during a scramble in the goal crease with 3:11 remaining in the period.

Chiarot was called for a double-minor high-sticking penalty at the end of the second period. The Devils used up most of the power play before Jack Hughes scored in the slot.

The Red Wings quickly answered on Holl's first goal of the season to make it 5-4.
