The Detroit Red Wings demonstrated — to themselves, most importantly — how well they can play.

Their performance against the Boston Bruins is something to build on when the Wings host the Vegas Golden Knights Sunday. They won on the strength of special teams and the goaltending of Jonathan Bernier.

Most immediately, the 4-2 victory meant coming off the ice in a good mood, instead of the misery that descended as blowout losses piled up.
