Detroit Red Wings prospect Carter Mazur scored his 13th goal and added two assists to pace the Grand Rapids Griffins to a 4-3 win against the Iowa Wild that extended the team’s American Hockey League point streak to 17 games.

Jonatan Berggren had the go-ahead goal in the third period. Zach Aston-Reese had the game-winner. Berggren boasts 11 goals and 14 assists for 25 points in his past 22 games. If the Red Wings lose a scorer to injury, he would appear to be the likely call-up.

This is the Griffins’ longest points streak since setting the team record of 19 games in 2014-15.

Detroit prospect defenseman Antti Tuomisto also had two assists for the Griffins are home to face Rockford tonight.
