Continuing to lose over the final 10 games will help the Detroit Red Wings in the 2023 NHL draft lottery, from an organizational standpoint. But as players keep pointing out: It’s way more fun to win. Given the strength of their schedule, fun will be challenging to have. This week offers four tests: Tuesday against
Jeff Curry-USA TODAY Sports Although there have been some ups and downs, overall, it’s been another arduous season for the Detroit Red Wings. The team suffered many injuries throughout the first half of the season, which prevented the organization from gaining much positive momentum. As the Red Wings got healthy, we saw a team capable
Detroit — The Red Wings aren’t scoring many goals. And, sure enough with the way it works, they’re not winning many games anymore, either.

The Detroit Red Wings continued their sputter towards the finish line, losing for the second straight time to a team below them in the standings.

Philadelphia – Only 10 games left for the Red Wings. Judging from some of the social media comments, the end can’t come soon enough. But coming on the heels of Saturday’s 3-0 loss in Philadelphia, you can understand the disappointment. The Flyers (28-32-12), who are suddenly only three points behind the Wings (31-32-9) in the
