Wings feeling confident with 5-game win streak, entering playoff race

The way Robby Fabbri described it a few days ago was "feeling a little something in that room right now."

For sure, after Thursday's 5-2 victory in Calgary — which completed a three-game sweep of western Canada and stretched the overall win streak to five games — the Wings are feeling awfully good about things.

Only two points from a playoff position (but actually in a wild-card spot, based on win percentage), the Wings' recent surge has vaulted them into playoff contention.

The confidence is also growing with each victory.

"We've been looking for something like this for quite a while," wing David Perron told DetroitRedWings.
