Early McLellan Magic For Detroit

Posted: 7 days ago. via Razzball
I attribute a lot of it to randomness, but the new coach bump seems to happen over and over again.  Right now, it's happening in Detroit, where Todd McLellan has the Red Wings on a seven game winning streak shortly after taking over the team.  Given the ugliness of the Eastern Conference Wild Card race, that's vaulted Detroit right back into contention.  A few guys have been thriving for Detroit, but I want to focus on Marco Kasper.  The former eighth overall pick is getting his first real opportunity in a big role, playing first line minutes with Larkin and Raymond.  In both games over the weekend, Kasper had a goal and an assist, with five shots between the two games.  He's getting second power play unit time as well, which is enough to bump Kasper into the middling to solid streamer range for the time being.  Let's take a look at what else happened over the weekend:
