The Detroit Red Wings are hoping to make progress this upcoming season. Progress can come in a number of ways. One way comes through the points a team earns throughout the season. Another deals with individual players raising their performances during any one season. For a team like Detroit, these should go hand in hand. […]

The Detroit Red Wings began their 2023-24 NHL season on the road against the New Jersey Devils. The game began in Detroit’s favor.

The Detroit Red Wings are one of the more interesting teams to preview ahead of the 2023-24 NHL season.

However, it’s still up in the air just how much the team improved given the moves they […]

The Detroit Red Wings enter the 2023-24 NHL season with some intrigue but a lot of question marks. Detroit didn’t lose any of their key contributors from last season. The most notable may have been Dominik Kubalik, who was traded to the Ottawa Senators in July. Training camps across the league are set to begin […]

The Detroit Red Wings followed up an NHL-record 25 straight postseason appearances by failing to advance for seven consecutive years — but captain Dylan Larkin believes the team is on the cusp of returning to the dance in 2023-24. “I do believe the past couple years we’ve taken steps,” the Michigan native told NHL.com’s Nicholas […]

It was very clear before Alex DeBrincat was traded to the Detroit Red Wings that the sniper wanted out of Ottawa — and Senators’ superstar Tim Stutzle did not mince words when asked about his former teammate’s departure. “If he doesn’t want to be there, I don’t want to make him have to be there,” […]

The Detroit Red Wings were active this offseason, trying to make their team better for 2023-24. Detroit swung trades for star goal-scorer Alex DeBrincat and veteran defenseman Jeff Petry. And they added a whole crop of free agents including J.T. Compher, Justin Holl, and Shayne Gostisbehere. This flurry of activity has many fans believing the […]

Especially players like Lucas Raymond who are expected to play major roles for the team down the line. Raymond, for one, is not shying away from […]

Filip Zadina joined the San Jose Sharks as an unrestricted free agent this summer. He received a fresh start after five injury-riddled seasons with the Detroit Red Wings.

The Detroit Red Wings are in an interesting spot heading into the 2023-24 NHL season. Detroit improved their roster this offseason. They were active in NHL Free Agency and swung a few interesting trades to add further firepower. However, it’s unclear just how much the team improved this summer. As a result, what Detroit does […]

The Detroit Red Wings finally swung a trade with the Ottawa Senators for Alex DeBrincat back in July. Everyone saw the move coming, as speculation about DeBrincat and Detroit ran rampant for weeks. From the Red Wings perspective, though, this wasn’t just something they wanted. It was a move they had to make. Red Wings […]

The Detroit Red Wings finally signed forward Joe Veleno ahead of the 2023-24 season. Veleno signed a one-year contract to take him off the restricted free agency market.

The Detroit Red Wings came out of nowhere on Tuesday to bring in a native son. Ann Arbor native Jeff Petry joined the team via trade with the Montreal Canadiens. The 35-year-old brings another veteran voice to Detroit’s blueline and is an interesting fit with the team. With the dust settling a bit on this […]

The Detroit Red Wings are looking for playoff hockey in 2023-24. There’s certainly no question about that, especially after their activity this summer. General manager Steve Yzerman has built an impressive prospect pipeline, and now he’s looking to let them inherit an already competitive team. Detroit’s most recent trade certainly showcased this idea. The Red […]

The Detroit Red Wings added some veteran depth on their blueline, acquiring Jeff Petry from the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday. Petry may not have been an obvious target for the Red Wings. However, the deal represents a full-circle moment for the 35-year-old veteran. Petry is a native of Ann Arbor, Michigan, making him the second […]

Just over a week after acquiring defenseman Jeff Petry from the Pittsburgh Penguins in the Erik Karlsson deal, the Montreal Canadiens traded Petry to the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday, according to TSN. The Canadiens will retain half of Petry’s salary on his contract and receive defenseman Gustav Lindstrom and a conditional fourth-round pick in […]

The Detroit Red Wings are still working through their rebuild despite a flurry of activity this summer.

However, he credited the team’s […]

It’s finally over. After weeks of rumors, speculation, and public back and forth, Alex DeBrincat has finally been traded. DeBrincat is headed to his home state of Michigan for the next four years.

The Red Wings will be receiving DeBrincat. […]

Last summer, Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman looked to accelerate the team’s rebuild, signing three veterans in Andrew Copp, Ben Chiarot and David Perron. The move didn’t exactly work out for the team, as they missed the postseason for the seventh straight year and really faded down the stretch. Perron had a decent […]

The Detroit Red Wings placed forward Filip Zadina on waivers on Monday. Detroit general manager Steve Yzerman explained to the media that Zadina had requested a trade from the team. And after no trade materialized, the Red Wings made him available to the other 31 teams in the league essentially for free. However, that move […]

The Detroit Red Wings spent a ton of money last summer to make their roster more competitive. And to an extent, it worked. Detroit achieved their first 80-point season since 2015-16, which is also the last time they made the Stanley Cup Playoffs. This summer, Detroit once again went wild in the open market. Red […]

After a few disappointing seasons in the Detroit Red Wings system, the team placed forward Filip Zadina on waivers on Monday, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reported. Zadina was drafted with the sixth-overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft, and there were high expectations for the young Czech native in Michigan. He simply failed to live up […]

The Detroit Red Wings were busy on the first day of NHL free agency. They signed a number of players, such as Shayne Gostisbehere, James Reimer, and Justin Holl.

The Detroit Red Wings and goaltender James Reimer have agreed to a one-year, $1.5 million deal, per Sportsnet. Reimer spent the last two seasons with the San Jose Sharks. In 2022, he played 43 games and had a 12-21-8 record. The Red Wings need to find goal-scorers this offseason, but Reimer is a cheap option […]

The Detroit Red Wings are one of the few teams in the National Hockey League right now with legitimate cap space. In fact, only one team in the entire league has more available space than them. Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman has around $30.2 million to work with this summer. From the looks of […]

The Philadelphia Flyers haven’t exactly been shy about the fact that James van Riemsdyk was not long for Philly. Former GM Chuck Fletcher shopped the veteran winger around the league at the NHL Trade Deadline. And he nearly dealt van Riemsdyk before the trade fell apart at the 11th hour. Now, the 34-year-old hits the […]

In the second salary cap dump of the day on Thursday, the Edmonton Oilers shipped young forwards Kailer Yamamoto and Klim Kostin east to the Detroit Red Wings in exchange for future considerations, the teams announced.

This year’s NHL Draft class is incredibly deep. As such, there are players who, in other years, would go higher than they will in 2023. Zach Benson is one of those players who might just fall due to the talent around him. Benson is far from a bad player in his own right. In fact, […]

The 2023 NHL Draft is not necessarily thin on defense. Rather there just isn’t much in the way of high-end blueline talent to be had outside of David Reinbacher and Axel Sandin Pellikka. However, there is one name rising through the draft that fans should keep their eyes on. Swedish blueliner Tom Willander has emerged […]

At last year’s NHL Draft, Slovakian hockey won the day. Juraj Slafkovsky went first overall to the Montreal Canadiens. And the New Jersey Devils followed that up by selecting Simon Nemec. It was the first time two Slovkain players went 1-2 in NHL Draft history. This year, there’s another top prospect from Slovakia. Dalibor Dvorsky […]

At last year’s NHL Draft, we saw a few elite defensemen available for the taking. The New Jersey Devils selected Simon Nemec second overall. And the Columbus Blue Jackets selected David Jiricek with the sixth pick. It seemed this year, however, there wouldn’t be that elite blueliner in this class. But that perception began to […]
