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
Let’s bounce back, shall we? Less than 24 hours after dropping their third straight game at home to Vegas, the Red Wings travel to Columbus for their second matchup of the season with the Blue Jackets. It’s a great opportunity for them to get back on track as their last trip to Columbus was a

Columbus — Ville Husso is getting the start in net Sunday for the Red Wings again. It’s the back end of a back-to-back, on the road, not even a full 24 hours difference, but it’s Husso starting — and Alex Nedeljkovic watching. “It was a tough decision because of the back-to-back, but the combination of
On Saturday (Dec. 3), the Vancouver Canucks were set to scratch star winger Brock Boeser for their contest against the Arizona Coyotes. However, due to a last-minute injury to Dakota Joshua, he ended up playing and even scored a goal. Yet, the original plan to scratch him has now come with consequences. While on Saturday’s
