BUFFALO, N.Y. — The Detroit Red Wings made a break for home feeling better about themselves than about the weather.

BUFFALO, N.Y. —  The Detroit Red Wings’ final meeting of the season with the Buffalo Sabres mirrored the slog of the winter storm but ended with a celebration.

It was precisely

Dylan Larkin hesitated to discuss his All-Star status because his Detroit Red Wings look so very pedestrian. Larkin’s selection to next month’s All-Star Game, the second selection of his career, brightens a stretch of hockey that has the Wings frustrated. Coach Jeff Blashill likes to note that’s a pointless reaction; as such, it reflects the

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Moritz Seider knows Nicklas Lidstrom was a phenomenal player; it’s the person behind that legend who Seider is eager to befriend. Seider, the most promising defenseman the Detroit Red Wings have had since Lidstrom debuted 30 years ago, is a leading candidate for the Calder Trophy. If Seider finishes second in voting, he’d

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Moritz Seider said the Detroit Red Wings enjoyed their weeklong reprieve from the colder temperatures back home, taking the opportunity to get out and get some vitamin sea and D.
