ANAHEIM -- The Detroit Red Wings will put their three-game winning streak on the line against the Anaheim Ducks at Honda Center on Sunday (8 p.m. ET; FS-D, PRIME, FS-SD).
The Red Wings have gone coast-to-coast on their longest road trip of the season. The six-game trip began at the Buffalo Sabres on Jan. 2 and will end at the Arizona Coyotes on Thursday. A fourth straight win would be a season high, but the Red Wings have lost their past four games against the Ducks.
Goalie Petr Mrazek will start for the Red Wings. Mrazek has allowed one goal in his past two starts. He has played all three games of Detroit's current trip and had a 35-save performance Friday at the San Jose Sharks.
"He's been really solid and probably a big reason why we won the last three," Red Wings forward Henrik Zetterberg said at practice Saturday. "He's been really good and gives us confidence, and it's a little easier to play in front of him."
The Ducks are the top penalty-killers in the NHL (89.4 percent) and haven't allowed a power-play goal in their past six games, killing off the past 23 shorthanded opportunities. The Red Wings power play, however, is better on the road (seventh, 22.6 percent) than at home (T-26th, 14.5 percent).
"They're a fast team that can skate and move the puck," Ducks forward Nate Thompson said. "They've obviously got some really good skill up front. We definitely have to make sure we stay out of the penalty box because they move the puck really well."
Neither team skated Sunday.
Here are the projected lineups:
RED WINGS
Gustav Nyquist - Henrik Zetterberg - Justin Abdelkader
