The Detroit Red Wings head off on a four-game road trip with a determination they haven’t had in several seasons.
They ride a three-game point streak into Saturday's game in Toronto, buoyed by another example that sticking to their plan pays off. They had to settle for one point in Friday’s 3-2 overtime loss to the Florida Panthers at Little Caesars Arena, but considering the Wings trailed by a pair of goals after two periods, seeing Pius Suter tie the game with less than three minutes to go was a shot of confidence.
“We stuck with it, kept finding a way,” said goalie Alex Nedeljkovic after making 29 saves.
