The Wings haven't lost to the Flames at Joe Louis since 2005, and have won 10 of the last 12 home meetings. They also took all three games in Detroit during the team's first-round playoff matchup in 2007.

Despite two lopsided losses in their last five games, the Wings are 7-3 in their last 10 and tied with slumping San Jose for the NHL lead with 96 points.

Ty Conklin should be back in goal after winning for the ninth time in 10 starts with Tuesday's win over Phoenix. Conklin, 2-0-0 with a 2.42 goals-against average versus the Flames this season, is tied with Boston's Manny Fernandez for the most goal support per game in the NHL at 3.72.
