2017 marks 1st time 4 NHL teams have recorded 10-game winning streaks

Winning games in bunches has become a hot trend this season.

With a 4-3 win by the Calgary Flames over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Monday night, the Flames pushed their winning streak to 10 games, becoming the fourth team to record a double-digit winning streak this season. It's the first time in NHL history four teams have accomplished the feat in one season, according to Elias Sports Bureau.

The Flames join the Columbus Blue Jackets - who came within a win of tying the NHL record of 17 straight victories, the Minnesota Wild who strung together a streak of 12, and the Philadelphia Flyers who recorded 10 straight wins.

The current streak eclipses last year's mark which had served as the only year in which three teams had recorded such winning streaks.

Of the four teams above, the Flyers are the only club not currently in a playoff spot.
