Detroit — Usually playing a second game in two nights doesn't prove successful for teams.
There's often travel involved, that much hockey in 48 hours (or less) is tough on the body, and things seem to get compounded when you're the road team.
But bring it on, say the Red Wings.
For the third time this season, the Wings went on the road of a back-to-back and came with a victory, Sunday 4-2 over Columbus.
Dominik Kubalik and Lucas Raymond had power play goals, Austin Czarnik opened the scoring, and Andrew Copp had a crucial third period goal, while goaltender Ville Husso, who got both starts over the weekend, stopped 31 shots.
