Detroit — The Red Wings might be missing a key defenseman early next season. The Wings announced Tuesday that Simon Edvinsson underwent successful surgery on his left shoulder on Monday.

What a performance from former Detroit Red Wings forward Tyler Bertuzzi in his playoff debut. In the 10 years since he was drafted by the Wings, Bertuzzi only played in the postseason at lower levels. But the Boston Bruins’ decision to offer a sweet deal for him at this year’s trade deadline proved worth it:
The Detroit Red Wings organization has to be truly happy with Amadeus Lombardi‘s progression during the 2022-23 season. He may not have been with the Red Wings or the Grand Rapids Griffins, but the performance that he put together in the Ontario Hockey League (IOHL) was downright fantastic. The former Detroit Red Wings fourth-round pick
The Detroit Red Wings drafted Jared McIsaac in the second round of the 2018 NHL Entry Draft, using the 36th overall draft choice to grab him. He was one of the Red Wings’ top prospects at one point, being given a ton of praise for his potential at the NHL level. However, the Detroit Red
Detroit Red Wings captain, Dylan Larkin, hushed his critics this past season by posting a career year offensively. Larkin, 26, posted career-bests across the board offensively this past season and was far and away the Detroit Red Wings’ top forward, and overall player, for that matter. This past season, Larkin tied a career-high 32 goals,
Steve Yzerman pulled a fast one last summer, using some of his draft capital to strengthen the Detroit Red Wings in net. Goaltenders are an especially valuable commodity, and in spending a third-round pick to acquire Ville Husso from the St. Louis Blues, Yzerman avoided getting into a bidding war five days before Husso would

The Detroit Red Wings were in dire need of an overhaul on their backend, which included the defense and the goaltending from Detroit to Grand Rapids. And while the process isn’t complete,
Connor Hellebuyck has laid his cards out on the table. After the Jets were eliminated by the Vegas Golden Knights in five games, and frankly embarrassed by their performance in an elimination game, the Jets’ starting goaltender seemed to hint that either the team build itself into a contender or he’s gone. When asked about
The Detroit Red Wings are hoping that their team can keep making strides moving forward and be a competitor. There were glimpses of a competing team in 2022-23; the Red Wings just need to see their competitive window open up. One of the Detroit Red Wings players that the team has to be thinking can
Detroit — Give Jake Walman all the credit. Walman was still recovering from offseason shoulder surgery when the Red Wings began this season, and the way the defense was constructed, there sure didn’t seem like much of a chance for Walman to skate himself into ample playing time. There were a lot of veterans ahead
