The Red Wings’ Anthony Mantha has put up three points in three games, two of those being goals. So why aren’t we talking about this about it more? Perhaps it’s been the deafening noise of critics, or the suffocating frustration of what is now a six-game winless streak. Maybe it’s the expectations that come with his new contract that pays him to be a scorer. Regardless of what it is, Mantha may be heating up at just the right time as Detroit is promised some talent back from Covid protocol list this week.
