Wings record with 3rd period lead or lead in general?

Does anyone know where I would be able to see that?

I'm thinking the amount of losses would be pretty shocking....

When the wings lead after the third we win 100% of the time. And that to me is the most important stat. Also if we ever got a two or three goal lead with the exception of that one week this season I'm sure we would be fine....problem is we can't even score two or three goals.

I am interested in the stats as well. I wonder if they support what I think is going on or not.

It would be nice if the Wings scored the games first goal

Not sure about the Wings, but I saw a stat showing that the Rangers haven't lost a game in regulation that they were leading after 2 periods in the past 90 games or something like that. Crazy stat.

Under Team Stats on NHL.com it shows some percentages that relate to this and other game situations (but unfortunately nothing as specific as two- or three-goal leads). The Red Wings are tied for 19th place with a 83.3% winning percentage when leading after 2 periods of play.

They are tied for 17th place for winning percentage (28.6%) when the other team scores first. Yet Detroit is 26th for winning percentage (60.9%) when they do score first. Interesting...
