Winnipeg – This season, the Detroit Red Wings have shown that they are more than capable of surviving hardship. The Red Wings’ losing run now stands at four games following their 5-2 loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday. Captain Dylan Larkin stated that Detroit has only one option to break out of this slump.

Larkin on his assessment of the defeat on Wednesday
“Right now, it’s kind of spiraling. There’s a lot of hockey, but we can’t give an explanation. Instead of coming in here and finding a path, we failed to do so. We discovered the reverse. We’ve been having trouble with our d-zone coverage lately, and they exposed us tonight. With backdoors and prolonged o-zone movements for Winnipeg, we left Reims hanging.
