Detroit — Jordan Oesterle was a preschooler in Dearborn Heights when the Red Wings won the 1997 and 1998 Stanley Cups and sent Detroit hockey fans into euphoria. The current Red Wings defenseman remembers some of the excitement, and for sure watched the videos growing up, became a Wings fan. But there was something, specifically,
Buffalo, N.Y. — When the Red Wings are doing a good job defensively, keeping the puck out of their net, they’ve been a successful team. When it’s looked eerily similar to the last several seasons, and the team has been poor defensively, then it’s looked like Monday’s 8-3 loss in Buffalo. That’s actually three of

If the zombie apocalypse comes, which Red Wings players have the best chance to survive it. Our Natalie Kerwin investigates.
Buffalo, N.Y. — Matt Luff isn’t a big fan of blood, so this wasn’t ideal. Luff was hit on the side of his mouth Saturday night with a shot puck against Minnesota. Luff immediately looked and felt around his face to assess the damage. The news wasn’t good. “I hate blood,” said Luff, his face
BUFFALO, N.Y. — A trainer was able to stick two fingers through Matt Luff’s chin, that’s how bad it was. And this for a guy who hates blood. It speaks to Luff’s toughness, and his identity as a hockey player, that he’s back in the lineup for the Detroit Red Wings two days after rushing
Does Buffalo’s KeyBank Arena even have a doorbell to ring? That’s the question as the Detroit Red Wings go trick-or-treating … er, drop the puck with the Buffalo Sabres on Monday night. The visit to western New York will be the franchise’s 12th time playing on the road on Halloween; the Wings are 4-4-3 all-time
Detroit — There was no automatic belief that Adam Erne was going to be a regular in the Red Wings lineup heading into this season. On paper, there were a lot more forwards than roster spots. Though Erne appeared likely of getting a spot on the roster, it might have been as an extra forward,
