The Wings Are Finding Ways To Win

from Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press,

Dylan Larkin threw his arms around Anthony Mantha, then threw his arms around other teammates as the Detroit Red Wings celebrated on Saturday.

The Wings have done a lot of that lately, playing with swagger as they’ve fought back after a miserable start to the season. They've won eight of their past 10 games, including Saturday's 3-2 overtime victory over the New Jersey Devils. And though the schedule has been easier than it was in October, the Wings deserve credit for finding a way to turn things around.

“It’s awesome,” Larkin said. “It feels good coming in after games. We’re finding ways to win, instead of last year where it was going the opposite way and we were leading and we found ways to have nights where we’d fall apart. It feels good.”...

“I think everyone was counting us out,” Larkin said. “And here we are the last 10 games, we’ve shown not only the league and our fans, but we’ve shown ourselves we can play with every team on a nightly basis. We’re having fun and we’re rolling and we need to keep this going.”

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
