Marian Hossa's decision to leave Pittsburgh to sign with Detroit will only be validated if he helps the Red Wingshoist the Stanley Cup.

Hossa's former teammates, though, can feel good about beating him in their first shot.

Jordan Staal had a hat trick in the third period and set up Ruslan Fedotenko's winning goal with 1:11 in overtime, lifting the Penguins to a 7-6 comeback win over the Red Wings on Tuesday night.

Hossa had two assists against the team he left as a free agent to chase a Cup in Detroit, signing a one-year deal instead of staying in Pittsburgh for a longer and more lucrative contract.
