[ Lucas Raymond is making it hard for Red Wings not to keep him. Here’s why ]

Game notes: The Wings meet the Blue Jackets in a rematch of Saturday’s exhibition. Detroit won that one convincingly, 5-1, behind two goals from Dylan Larkin. Larkin is unlikely to play Wednesday, but Lucas Raymond may. Raymond, the Wings’ 2020 first-round pick, leads the team with six points in just three preseason games. 

The Wings have two more exhibitions following Wednesday’s contest. Fans will get one final look at potential starters in a Thursday night home meeting with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Detroit closes the preseason on the road vs. the Buffalo Sabres before the Oct. 14 season opener vs. the Tampa Bay Lightning.
