(SportsNetwork.com) - Looking to salvage what started out as a pretty good month, the Detroit Red Wings try to push their winning streak to three games in a row on Monday night when they visit the Boston Bruins. The Red Wings have picked up back-to-back wins on the heels of losing six straight, but they do have points in nine of 12 games in December (5-3-4) to sit second in the Atlantic Division with 47 points. The Bruins are sixth in the division with 39 points. Detroit stayed in the win column with Saturdays 3-2 overtime decision against the Ottawa Senators, with Gustav Nyquist putting on a show in the bonus frame to close out the contest with 48 seconds on the clock. The 25-year-old controlled the puck and skated around the Senators zone for 28 seconds before finally finding space to unleash a wrist shot from the left circle for his 15th goal of the season. That effort came after he had three assists in last Tuesdays win over Buffalo. The guys did a good job of creating some space for me, Nyquist said. It was nice to see it go in at the end. Henrik Zetterberg had a goal and an assist, Justin Abdelkader also scored and Niklas Kronwall supplied two helpers for the Red Wings. Jimmy Howard turned aside 31 shots in his return from a groin injury that held him out of the previous two games. The Bruins have been less successful this month with eight losses in 12 games (4-6-2), but appeared to be turning a corner ahead of Saturdays matchup with the Columbus Blue Jackets. Boston went in having won three of four, but was then routed 6-2 by hosting Columbus. Patrice Bergeron and Craig Cunningham scored for the Bruins, while backup Niklas Svedberg allowed three goals on 15 shots before getting lifted less than seven minutes into the second period. Tuukka Rask made 12 saves in relief, also allowing three goals. Its hard to find words after a game like this, Bruins defenseman Zdeno Chara said. We started putting some (wins) together and climbing the standings, and now here we go again. Both Bergeron and Milan Lucic are day-to-day with undisclosed injuries, having not practiced on Sunday. Neither has been ruled out for this game, but forward Jordan Caron was recalled from the minors. The Bruins have lost eight of their past 10 against the Red Wings, but did snap a four-game series losing streak with a 3-2 shootout victory in Detroit on Oct. 15. The Red Wings have won three of their past four in Boston and Howard has gone an excellent 5-1-1 in seven career starts versus the Bruins with a 1.95 goals against average and .937 save percentage. Conversely, Rask is just 2-5-1 in eight matchups with the Red Wings, posting a 3.10 GAA and .877 save percentage. Jason Pierre-Paul Jersey .

With Sundays 2-0 win over the Twins, Toronto has won 10 of its last 13 games. The club has won four-consecutive series for the first time this season. ROGERS WITH STAND OUT ROAD TRIP Esmil Rogers won both of his starts on the trip, following up his 6 1/3 innings of shutout baseball in Phoenix with 7 2/3 innings scoreless against the Twins, his longest outing of the season. There are a lot of moving parts when it comes to next seasons rotation, with only R.A. Dickey and Mark Buehrle seemingly locks for starting spots. If Rogers is auditioning, hes not worrying about it. "Thats one of the reasons, when you go home and the office thinks about it, theyre going to think about September, how everybody did in September," said Rogers. "When you finish the season a lot of people forget a little bit about that because September is more close to the finish of the season. I try to take the opportunity and I try to be ready every time that I get it." NO QUIT The Blue Jays believe a strong finish will set the table for a more successful 2014. "Its better for us as players because it gets our confidence better for whats going to happen for next year," said Jose Reyes. "If we finish the season strong, playing very good baseball, when we go to spring training we believe as players we can do it. Its been a disappointing season for us but the way that weve played lately is the way were supposed to play." "There are young guys here that we want to teach them the winning mentality," said Casey Janssen. "Not to be light and loose when we lose and to be frustrated and also, what comes with winning is coming to the park and putting a smile on your face and passing the time in a positive way.&qquot; JANSSEN NEARING 30 SAVES With each save, Casey Janssen adds to his personal single-season career high.dddddddddddd He picked up his 29th in Sundays 2-0 win over the Twins. The next stop is 30, which seems like a nice number. "If I get 30 and there are two weeks left in the season am I going to be content," asked Janssen. "I dont really have a special number. I just want to go out there and try to save every game possible and obviously help our team win." REYES MAKING PROGRESS Shortstop Jose Reyes is looking forward to being healthy in next season. Having started all but one of the Blue Jays games since his return on June 26 from a 66-game absence with sprained left ankle, Reyes says hes pleased with the way hes progressing as the season draws to a close. "I feel like its way better," said Reyes. "I think the last two weeks its coming along very good. It feels a lot looser, (I feel pain) still a little bit but its way better than it was before. So, you know, thats good to see. I feel happy about it that I can run on the field; do my stuff without thinking about anything else." Reyes is putting in the time. He estimates he spends 90 minutes daily doing a combination of ankle-specific exercises, massage and hot tub treatment to prepare his ankle for each game. "To be honest with you, when Im on the field, I dont feel it," he said. "When Im slowing down, I can run full speed with no problem without thinking about it, its when Im slowing down. Like I said, the last two weeks have been way better. I feel like me playing the game." ROTATION FOR ANGELS SERIES Mark Buehrle will pitch on Tuesday, followed by R.A. Dickey on Wednesday and J.A. Happ on Thursday. With off days last Thursday and on Monday, the Blue Jays elected to skip Todd Redmonds turn in the rotation to better control his workload.
