We hear from coach Jeff Blashill after his Red Wings suffer a 4-1 setback in Nashville on Saturday. #MadeToChill
The most encouraging development to emerge from the first half of the Detroit Red Wings’ season is how well general manager Steve Yzerman’s draft picks have performed. Moritz Seider and Lucas Raymond have strengthened the foundation of the rebuild, infusing skill and swagger into the lineup. In less than three years, Yzerman has shaped the
If this weekend was any sort of measuring stick, playing against two tough, playoff-caliber teams, the Red Wings came up a little bit short. Saturday it was the Nashville Predators who withstood a good Wings road game, and defeated the Red Wings 4-1 at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. “We fought hard, played a physical game, we matched
For all the good the Detroit Red Wings did Saturday, their ineffective power play undermined their hard work. The Wings had six minutes with an extra skater during the first 22 minutes against the Nashville Predators at Bridgestone Arena and came away with nothing — and at the end of the night, they came away with no points,
This was one of those plays that Jeff Blashill admitted you can’t coach, had nothing to do team systems, it was just about the player. Dylan Larkin’s goal in the second period, going coast to coast, was one of those highlight reel type of plays that will be highlighted on telecasts for weeks to come.

When the Detroit Red Wings opened the season with two hyped rookies — Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider — on the roster, they knew the two were good. But good enough for one to win the Calder Trophy (awarded annually to the league’s top rookie)? “He always looked like a good player, then I saw him
Detroit — These are the types of games the Red Wings are still learning to finish, grab the victory, and move on to the next game. They proved Friday they’re still grasping how to do those things, and it cost them a point in the standings. Dallas tied the game late in regulation, then won
The Detroit Red Wings showed their next-shift mentality, responding right away as their opponent tried to grab momentum. Dylan Larkin grabbed the spotlight with a go-ahead goal Friday at Little Caesars Arena and Tyler Bertuzzi capped a three-point night with a power play goal, but the Wings had to settle for one point when they

Detroit — The Red Wings head into the second half of the season on a bit of a downer. Dallas tied the game late in regulation, then won it overtime on Roope Hintz’s power-play goal, giving the Stars a 5-4 overtime victory. Hintz was alone in front of goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic and tapped in Joe
