Sam Gagner hits milestone as Detroit Red Wings beat Winnipeg, 3-1, for 2nd straight win

The Detroit Red Wings took another step towards feeling better about themselves with a solid performance in tough circumstances.

Playing for the second time in two days and facing a Winnipeg Jets team facing a fading shot at the playoffs, the Wings pulled out a 3-1 victory Wednesday at Canada Life Centre. The Wings have emerged from a six-game losing streak to win consecutive games for the first time since Feb 9-12.

Thomas Greiss came through with 32 saves. Sam Gagner reached a milestone with a goal in the first period, and added an empty-net goal in the third.
