The Detroit Red Wings will be leaning on Cam Talbot if they’re to do the improbable – erase a four-point deficit with eight games remaining and leapfrog three teams to reach the playoffs. Talbot is coming off two strong performances – a 2-1 victory over Boston and a 2-1 overtime loss at St. Louis in a game where he deserved a better fate.

The Detroit Red Wings have 8 games left to reach the playoffs and are at 75 points. They've got a lot of work to do.
