TORONTO — Detroit Red Wings teammates love to play with him, or just watch him.
Thomas Vanek is renown for his creativity, the way he can create a scoring chance for himself or a linemate that another player wouldn’t even think of. But like all players he does better when he’s confident, and he could use a boost in that department.
Entering Thursday’s game against the Toronto Maple Leafs at Scotiabank Arena, Vanek had three goals and six assists in 20 games.
