When the Sharks last saw the Red Wings, it was a tough loss to swallow. After outplaying the Red Wings for sixty minutes and holding up through a penalty in overtime, the Sharks went on to lose the game in a shootout.
Maybe it’s a small consolation that Detroit hasn’t exactly stepped up their game over the last month and a half. The Red Wings are sitting on a six-game losing streak, with their last win coming in overtime against the New York Rangers on February 25. They’re 2-6-2 in their last ten games.
