Detroit Red Wings – 4th Atlantic Division

The Red Wings went 1-1 during a very short week, having Monday to Thursday off before beating the Blackhawks 4-1 and then losing to the Canadiens by the same score.

Tomas Tatar and Luke Glendening each had a goal and a helper for the Wings over the two games.

The drop in the standings for Detroit can be attributed more to the lack of games played rather than the 1-1 record itself.

They still hold two games in hand over the third place Boston Bruins while trailing them by only a point.

Detroit spends the upcoming week on the road with games in Columbus, Toronto and Winnipeg as they look to return to third in the Atlantic.
