Mrazek was Wings' first star in January

DETROIT – Where would the Red Wings be without him?

No, not rookie Dylan Larkin, though, he too has been an absolute blessing as the team's leading goal scorer this season.

Where would the Wings be if not for goalie Petr Mrazek?

Mrazek has been a catalyst for the Red Wings this season, which is in stark contrast to the inconsistency he battled during the 2014-15 campaign.

In the first few months of this season, coach Jeff Blashill said the Wings had a good problem: two elite goaltenders as Mrazek fought for playing time with veteran Jimmy Howard.
