Going for walks, baking cinnamon rolls, ice fishing and watching movies, these are a few of the Detroit Red Wings’ favorite things to do during their holiday break.
Their Christmas vacation was extended by a day when Friday’s game game Ottawa was postponed because of the winter weather. They next gather Tuesday for a practice, ahead of playing Wednesday on the road against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The Wings are 14-11-7 as they creep closer to the season’s midpoint. They managed to snap a six-game skid before going on the three-day NHL-wide break, celebrating a confidence-inducing, 7-4 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning, one of league’s elite teams.
