The Detroit Red Wings are experiencing an impressive resurgence with two seven-game winning streaks to start the year, marking a significant turnaround since their last similar stretch over a decade ago. The initial streak relied heavily on a formidable power play, consistently contributing two to three goals per game. However, the latest streak showcases a shift in style with a focus on strong defense.

Goalies Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon have been pivotal during this stretch, with Talbot leading the charge with a stellar .937 save percentage across five games, including a shutout against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Lyon, though having fewer starts, boasts an even higher save percentage of .946 from his two games. This dynamic presents a fascinating goaltending conundrum for head coach Todd McLellan as the team heads into the 4 Nations Faceoff break.
