 ABOUT THE WINGS

LW Tomas Tatar is having a fine season. Though he was shut out Wednesday, he has 23 goals (best on the Wings) and 39 points.

Detroit is a dangerous third-period team. It has a record of 6-10-2 when trailing after two periods, including a win in Winnipeg earlier this season, and is 21-0-2 when leading after two. That last stat is a decided edge tonight, as the Jets are 0-15-3 this season when trailing after two.

The Wings have posted a 7-0-1 record vs. Central Division teams this season.

With power-play goals in four straight games, Detroit leads the NHL with a 25.9 per cent power play.
