It’s only the third time this season the Wings have won three games in a row, and this streak is especially gratifying after playing well game after game since New Year’s Eve only to come up short.

“One of the hardest things in life is to keep believing when you’re not getting results, but our guys have done a good job of that,” coach Jeff Blashill said. “They’ve continued to understand that if you do it right over and over and over again, results always follow if you can stay with it. I think a lot of people and teams don’t stay with it enough. We’ve stayed with it and we’ve got results to show for it. Now, I didn’t think we played great on Saturday, we mucked out a road win and had a real good goalie performance, but sometimes you have to muck road wins. We didn’t give them much, either.

“But I think over the last 17, 18 games now, our process has been very good. W have to stay with it.”
