When they host the Tampa Bay Lightning on this coming Saturday, it should still be a fresh memory how poorly the Wings fared in their first outing of the season against their divisional foe. Certainly coach Todd McLellan did not have much positive to say ...

Thirty days into Todd McLellan’s tenure as the Detroit Red Wings head coach, the biggest change in the team can’t be measured by statistics. You can see it.

McLellan has put his stamp on the Red Wings a month into his tenure. They’re playing faster. They’re scoring more. They’re outshooting opponents most nights because of better puck possession and a newfound shot mentality.

The Detroit Red Wings believe in themselves again, says new head coach Todd McLellan. That has made all the difference in the world.

McLellan and his right-hand man, former Kings and Ducks assistant Trent Yawney, have put their imprint on the winged wheel in short order. “Our structure in all three zones (has improved), I feel like we’re just supporting the puck better,” Talbot told The Detroit News.

Todd McLellan voiced a very powerful comment to the players in the Detroit Red Wings locker room, including a special mention for veteran leader Patrick Kane.

The Detroit Red Wings need another long winning streak if they are to make headway in the playoff race. They had a promising outing on Thursday with a 4-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens and will try to maintain the positive vibes going when they host the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday night.

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Erik Cernak will miss Saturday's game against the Detroit Red Wings due to an undisclosed injury. He left Thursday's matchup against Anaheim after just 34 seconds of ice time after sustaining the injury.

The Red Wings showed they're learning how to win after falling behind against a great defensive team like the Kings and scoring five straight goals.
