Tampa, Fla. — Jon Cooper is good friends with Derek Lalonde and Jeff Blashill. Lalonde and now Blashill have been assistant coaches under Cooper, the two-time Stanley Cup-winning Tampa Bay Lightning head coach. When Lalonde replaced Blashill as head coach of the Red Wings, Cooper wasted little time contacting Blashill and gauging Blashill’s interest in

The Columbus Blue Jackets have had a nightmare of a 2022-23 season. At the time of this writing, they have an 8-13-2 record and the least amount of points in the Eastern Conference. This is certainly not what they expected coming into the season, as they were the winners of the Johnny Gaudreau sweepstakes. Long-term

The Detroit Red Wings are now 24 games into the 2022-23 season. While that is not quite a third of the way through the 82-game schedule, that’s more than enough to time to have a good grip on team and individual trends this season. For example, with a record of 12-7-5, it’s clear that the

TAMPA, Fla. — This week will be revealing for the Detroit Red Wings. They’ve achieved a winning record on the strength of beating teams that don’t project to make the playoffs, but now come a trio of elites, one after the one: The Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday, Florida Panthers on Thursday, and Dallas Stars
Jeff Blashill admits there will be ‘different emotions’ facing Red Wings “It’ll be different,” Blashill said. “I can’t tell you how I’m going to feel until we’re in the middle of it. A lot of guys, a lot of players in that room, I’ve coached a long time. Obviously the staff I was with throughout.
Tampa, Fla. — For Red Wings coach Derek Lalonde, getting to see his family and being able to sleep in his own bed were terrific things to look forward to after Sunday night’s win over Columbus. The next stop was Tampa, where Lalonde had spent the last four years as an assistant coach and where
Tampa, Fla. — It seemed like old times to a certain extent. Jeff Blashill addressing the media, talking about hockey. But then you noticed the Tampa Bay Lightning gear, and Blashill isn’t the head coach in Tampa, he’s an assistant on Jon Cooper’s staff and was essentially filling in for Cooper Monday afternoon. Also, knowing
While most of the talk around the Detroit Red Wings’ prospect pool revolves around the likes of defencemen (Moritz Seider, Simon Edvinsson, William Wallinder) and goalies (Sebastian Cossa), their best forward prospect is having himself a breakout season in the Swedish Hockey League (SHL).

It didn’t take long to notice the Blue Jackets’ focus wasn’t sharp Sunday in a 4-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings at Nationwide Arena. Marcus Bjork, a rookie defenseman, got the puck during his first shift and attempted an exit pass from deep in his own zone. He then watched in horror as the
This was not how the Blue Jackets wanted to return from an uplifting road victory in Winnipeg. Rather than building on that game Sunday, they lost 4-2 to the Detroit Red Wings at Nationwide Arena in a game controlled by the visitors most of the night. Detroit took a 2-0 lead in the first period, pushed

Playing an opponent outside the playoff picture was just what the Detroit Red Wings needed to find the win column again. They improved to 3-0 this season when playing on the road the day after a home game, using their power play to dispatch the Columbus Blue Jackets, 4-2, Sunday at Nationwide Arena. Multiple players
Columbus — Usually playing a second game in two nights doesn’t prove successful for teams. There’s often travel involved, that much hockey in 48 hours (or less) is tough on the body, and things seem to get compounded when you’re the road team. But bring it on, say the Red Wings. For the third time
