Hats off to the Detroit Red Wings, especially Anthony Mantha. They keep losing players and keep on winning.
With 10 players listed out with injuries and defenseman Danny DeKeyser departing early due to a lower-body ailment, the Wings rode Mantha's first career hat trick to their season-high fifth consecutive victory on Sunday. They scored four third-period goals to down the Boston Bruins 6-3 at Little Caesars Arena.
Former Michigan State standout Taro Hirose scored his first NHL goal early in the third period to put the Wings ahead for good.
