Tim Reynolds | Associated Press Sunrise, Fla. — Florida’s Matthew Tkachuk was right at home at the NHL All-Star Game. Again.

Today is Feb. 3, 2023. It’s a perfectly innocuous date, at least until you shorten it to just the digits: 2/3/23. That’s 23-23, or as ESPN (and its ACC Network) has dubbed it: “Michael Jordan Day.” It’s all fine and good, we guess — there are worse ideas than a day devoted to Jordan’s greatest moments
Detroit — The speculation is endless on social media, from all corners of the globe, from Red Wings fans and NHL rumor spreaders alike. Everyone loves to tweet about Dylan Larkin’s contract situation. The fact Larkin hasn’t yet signed a contract extension with the Red Wings beyond this season.

Filip Zadina is the latest Detroit Red Wings’ player assigned to the minors to work on his game.

This weekend marks Dylan Larkin’s third appearance representing the Detroit Red Wings at the All-Star Game. It shouldn’t be his last one.

Detroit — They’re ahead of where they were. But they aren’t where they need to be. So, that’ll be the challenge for the Red Wings coming out of the All-Star break, trying to bridge that gap between the fringes of the playoff chase and legitimate contention. And this will remain the dilemma for general manager
Bobby Hull is remembered as a legendary goal scorer, but there was one Detroit Red Wings player — and not one of the famous ones — who took great delight in thwarting him. Hull, who died Monday at 84 years old, was one of the most renown and feared scorers in the NHL in the 1960s. Hull,

The inability to string some victories together is costing the Wings a chance to move up the standings and make a solid playoff push in a rugged and deep Eastern Conference.
