The Red Wings have shown a promising uptick in form, with a notable victory against the New Jersey Devils where they secured a 4-0 win. This victory was marked by an impressive defensive display, as evidenced by the goaltending stats showing a save percentage of 100 percent and no goals against on 16 shots.
The offensive side has also been clicking for Detroit, with their last game against Boston Bruins resulting in a 5-2 win. The team's shooting percentage stood at roughly 18 percent that night, showcasing efficiency in front of goal. Additionally, special teams played a key role as they capitalized on powerplay opportunities scoring two goals from eight shots.
