The Detroit Red Wings will be looking to make the NHL playoffs for a record 26th straight season this year, and if they do Darren Helm and Mike Green will need to contribute in a big way. So far, so good.. Last night the Wings defeated the Senators 5-1 at Joe Louis Arena, earning the club win number one on the season.
Somewhere at The Joe, general manager Ken Holland was smiling extra wide – not just because the Red Wings rolled to an easy win, but because his last second signing played a big part in the victory.
