The Detroit Red Wings are two points behind the Rangers for the last wildcard spot.
They're also a point behind Pittsburgh, though the WIngs have a game in hand. And Carolina and Ottawa are two points back of Detroit with each team having two games in hand. In the Atlantic Detroit is tied with Boston, but Boston has one more ROW and two games in hand.
So here's our scheduled from now to New Years Day.

IMO, even with all those home games, this is the going to be the stretch of the season where the Wings get a real look in the mirror.
So far Detroit is 0-3-3 against Eastern Conference playoff teams.
There are 6 games against Eastern Conference playoff teams.
Additionally, the home-and-home is a chance to put away the Habs or to let the Habs catch them.
I could see the Wings easily bombing out at 5-7-3, even with those home games.
And if the Wings do that they could be in the bottom three in the East by Jan. 1.
That could be good news, if you're looking for that Dahlin lottery ticket.
