Detroit — Is Anthony Mantha about to go on one of his hot streaks?
The Red Wings have been waiting for one of Mantha’s goal-scoring binges all season. Signs seem to point toward one coming.
Sunday’s goal with 10 seconds left in the Wings’ 2-1 loss to Carolina, was Mantha’s third goal in five games and second in two games, so it’s still in the infant stages.
But the eye test indicates Mantha is about to finally post the type of numbers the Wings have been waiting for.
“I hope so,” coach Jeff Blashill said Monday about whether Mantha is about ready to surge.
