The Detroit Red Wings, currently leading the Atlantic Division, are cautious about their position, likening it to being in the middle of the forest rather than on top of the mountain. With a slim one-point lead over the Boston Bruins and only three points separating them from falling out of playoff contention, a loss to the New York Islanders could see the Islanders surpass them. The coach, Todd McLellan, emphasizes the importance of every point, especially with the standings being volatile. He also acknowledges the historical American Thanksgiving benchmark for playoff contention but believes this years tight race might challenge that statistic. McLellan stresses the need to manage every segment of the season and perform consistently to maintain their position in the competitive NHL landscape.
