Detroit — There remains a sizeable talent gap between the Red Wings and Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche. The Avalanche used productive afternoons from many of their stars Saturday in defeating the Red Wings 5-1 at Little Caesars Arena. Colorado’s Nathan MacKinnon had a goal and two assists, Mikko Rantanen scored his 46th goal, Cale

When Steve Yzerman passed Bryan Trottier for 10th place on the NHL all-time scoring list on Nov. 11, 1998, the Detroit Red Wings’ captain let everyone know what he thought of the New York Islanders’ captain. “We all have role models, and he’s (Trottier) mine,” Yzerman told the Associated Press after picking up a goal

Ted Kulfan takes a look at ex-Red Wing Jakub Vrana’s hot start with the Blues and Hall of Famer Bryan Trottier is the podcast guest. Vrana was dealt to St. Louis at the trade deadline for a seventh-round pick in 2025 and forward Dylan McLaughlin. Since then, Vrana has four goals in five games and

Detroit — Red Wings fans are going to get a chance to see defenseman Simon Edvinsson. Edvinsson, the Red Wings’ 2021 first-round draft pick (sixth overall), was recalled Friday, along with forward Austin Czarnik from minor-league affiliate Grand Rapids under emergency conditions.

Detroit — One thing the Red Wings don’t need the remainder of this season is injuries, but they’re beginning to deal with multiple ones as the schedule winds down. Already without forward Robby Fabbri (lower-body), coach Derek Lalonde said defenseman Ben Chiarot is considered week-to-week as he deals with an upper-body injury. “Ben has been

Why Bally Sports Detroit isn’t going anywhere today, and why it might be around for years to come. It’s a crisis, to be sure. But the sky’s not falling. At least, not yet. That’s the biggest takeaway from the Bally Sports kerfuffle, with the regional-sports network’s parent company, Diamond Sports Group, officially filing for Chapter

Nashville — Strange to call Tuesday’s game a must-have game, considering where the Red Wings are in the standings, far enough from the playoff cutline to make it highly unlikely getting there, yet tantalizingly possible with a lengthy win streak. But it was, in a huge way. Playing an injury-riddled Nashville team that’s also dreaming

Nashville − The Red Wings can’t afford to lose many more games if they harbor any playoff dreams. It’s getting difficult mathematically for the Wings with only 15 games remaining on the schedule. A loss like Tuesday’s in Nashville, 2-1, to the Predators, certainly doesn’t help matters. Alex Chiasson scored his third goal, a power-play

Nashville — Maybe it’s that uniform number that Matt Luff wears with the Red Wings, the number 22. One of Luff’s friends is Mitchell Stephens, who played with the Wings last season but also went through an injury-marred campaign. Stephens, incidentally, wore 22. Maybe it’s simply the number. “We were joking around that it’s something

Detroit — It took Alex Chiasson much of this season to finally land an NHL contract. It might take nearly as long this time around if Chiasson continues to play the way he has been. Chiasson scored power-play goals in both of the Red Wings’ games last weekend, including Sunday’s 5-3 victory over Boston. In

Detroit — Like everybody else in this world, the Detroit Red Wings have been waiting for life to settle down a bit. Climbing into a playoff race, being thumped right back out of it, and then trading away several key players at the deadline — the last month has taken an emotional toll. But it

Detroit — Tyler Bertuzzi has been in many games like this at Little Caesars Arena — especially in recent weeks. But as it turns out, even a trade to the NHL’s top team can’t stop him from ending up on the wrong side of the scoreboard. The Detroit Red Wings exploded for three second-period goals
