We'll know more next season whether this end of season hot streak meant anything.
But if you're a Red Wings fan, enjoy this, because there hasn't been much to feel good about..
Tyler Bertuzzi scored his second goal of the game, at 2:18 of overtime, giving the Wings a 5-4 victory Thursday.
Dylan Larkin scored two goals in the third period, snapping a tie and reaching the 30-goal mark, giving the Wings a 4-2 lead. But Buffalo scored two goals 41 seconds apart late in the period, tying the game.
The victory was the Wings' (29-38-10) third consecutive game and fifth in the last six games.
