In a scheduling quirk — thank you, pandemic-shortened and affected NHL schedule — the Wings play the Dallas Stars four consecutive games.
The Wings are in Dallas for games Monday and Tuesday, then return for games Thursday and Saturday at Little Caesars Arena.
Are these the playoffs? No, of course not.
But there’s a good best these games will have a feel of something extra, given how important they are for Dallas.
“(We’ll) treat it like first four games of a playoff series, two games there and we have two games at home,” forward Dylan Larkin said.
