The Detroit Red Wings have had many ups and downs to start the season, but Jimmy Howard has stayed very even-keeled between the pipes for the Wings. The rebuilding Wings have more often than not left Howie to be buried with shots and pressure while his mates are scrambling with defensive zone coverage.
The Detroit Red Wings have been led by their special teams this season. The power play is providing the majority of the scoring opportunities, while the club continues to struggle during its five on five play.
Howard is a big reason the penalty kill is off to a top ten league-wide start.
