Red Wings Earn Much-Needed 5-3 Win Over Hurricanes

After returning home to Detroit following a 2-1 overtime loss vs. St. Louis on Tuesday, the Red Wings (35-33-7) earned a much-needed 5-3 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes (46-25-4) on Friday night from Little Caesars Arena to keep their playoff hopes alive as they enter the final two weeks of the regular season. While ultimately being outshot by a 33-21 margin, the Red Wings were able to…

Game Day Updates: Red Wings vs. Hurricanes

The frayed wisps of thread that are the Red Wings’ postseason hopes are on the line again tonight, as Detroit hosts the Carolina Hurricanes at 7 p.m. at Little Caesars Arena. I’ve been somewhere between optimistic and realistic about the Red Wings’ playoff chances in my game day posts over the last month or so. As devastating as many of the losses have felt, the math had been more or less…

Game Day Updates: Panthers vs Red Wings

Nice win over Carolina on Friday, now it’s on to an equally tough opponent in the Florida Panthers. Ideally the Red Wings will close out the remaining seven games with a total of 14 points, and maybe a playoff berth. This season has been less than ideal, however. Cam Talbot will get the start for Detroit tonight. Florida is missing several key players at the moment, so there is a chance for…

Red Wings Get Critical 2-1 Win vs Panthers

After winning 5-3 over Carolina on Friday, the Detroit Red Wings (36-33-7) continued to stay alive in their push for the final wild-card spot Sunday evening with a 2-1 win vs. the Florida Panthers (44-29-4) from Little Caesars Arena. Both teams entered the first intermission scoreless after Detroit could not capitalize on a Brad Marchand hooking call late in the first period.

Game Day Updates: Red Wings vs Canadiens

Big game tonight. The Montreal Canadiens are the only team that currently stands in Detroit’s way for the second wild card spot in the Eastern Conference. The Red Wings are six points back from the Habs with one game in hand. A regulation win for Detroit would swing their playoff chances to “slim” while a loss in regulation would pretty much put a bow on this season. MoneyPuck dot com posted some…

Quick Hits: Another Year with No Postseason Hockey

Red Wings Rumblings Welp, it’s over. The Red Wings gave a strong effort in last night’s loss to Montreal, which all but eliminated them from the playoffs. They’re technically in it still, but the chances are so slim that it’s not even worth wasting energy on. So we’re about a decade removed from Detroit’s last Stanley Cup Playoffs berth. That’s really depressing…

Game Day Updates: Red Wings at Panthers

Five games left. It’s felt like it would take a miracle for a while, but it’s tough to get up for the remainder of the schedule after Tuesday’s loss has all but crushed Detroit’s playoff hopes. If you missed it, the Red Wings are effectively yet not mathematically eliminated from the postseason. They would need to win at least four of their last five games (over exclusively playoff teams) and…

Game Day Updates: Red Wings at Lightning

If you are a fan of following exactly how over it is, tonight could be the night. Any point not achieved by the Red Wings from here on out or any point gained by the Canadiens (who are in Ottawa tonight) officially mathematically eliminates Detroit. I believe Detroit would even have to win out in regulation in order to catch Montreal’s tiebreaker advantage. We’re talking fractions of a…

Quick Hits: It’s Not Over ‘til It’s Over (It’s Over)

Red Wings Rumblings There are four games left in the season, the Red Wings lost last night, and somehow this team is STILL not eliminated from the playoff picture. For some reason, I am reminded of the scene in Gladiator where Commodus says to Maximus: “What am I going to do with you? You simply won’t die.” No but seriously, Detroit’s playoff chances will likely go up in smoke this…

Quick Hits: Offseason Mode Engaged… kinda

Red Wings Rumblings It’s finally official — the Red Wings have been mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. It’s amazing that it took this long for it to happen. It wasn’t as close of a miss as it was last season when Washington slipped by only to get the brakes beaten off of them in the first round, but at least they survived late into the season… if you’re looking for a moral…

ASP and MBN, as they are known among Red Wings fans, are two of Steve Yzerman’s most-recent first-round selections…

Red Wings Win Final Home Game 6-4 Over Dallas

Although the Detroit Red Wings (38-35-7) will miss the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the ninth consecutive season, this did not stop them from closing their home slate with a win by defeating the Dallas Stars (50-25-6) by a score of 6-4 from Little Caesars Arena on Monday night. Detroit opened the scoring at 15:33 left in the first period when Dylan Larkin drew three Stars players near the right…

Game Day Updates: Red Wings at Devils

Thirty-something hours until fade to black. The Detroit Red Wings are officially out of the playoff race, wrapping up the 2024-25 season with back-to-back road games in New Jersey tonight and Toronto tomorrow. For some, it’s a merciful end, but it’s still disappointing to be without playoff hockey for a ninth-straight spring. It should feel like a missed opportunity for a Red Wings team…

Red Wings Beat Devils 5-2 for Third Straight Win

Although failing to qualify for the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Detroit Red Wings (39-35-7) extended their late-season winning streak to three games with a 5-2 victory vs. the New Jersey Devils (42-33-7) on Wednesday night from the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ. The Red Wings initially thought they got on the board first via a power-play goal from Vladimir Tarasenko with 12:20 remaining…

Game Day Updates: Red Wings at Maple Leafs

Who’s up for going out on a high note? The Detroit Red Wings play game 82 tonight in Toronto, taking on the Maple Leafs at 7 p.m. Since being eliminated from postseason contention, the Red Wings have played pretty well… albeit against a couple of depleted rosters that chose to rest players, having their standings position locked up already. We could see the same tonight from the Maple…

Quick Hits: Final Thoughts on the Season

That’s a wrap, folks. The 2024-2025 regular season is officially over and what a ride it was. At the end of it all, the Red Wings put up a 39-35-8 record and, obviously, missed the playoffs. The more I reflect on this season, the less upset I am with missing out on the postseason. Why you might ask? It really comes down to the coaching change. It was a different team almost instantly after Derek…

Red Wings Drop 4-3 Season Finale in OT vs. Maple Leafs

On the final day of the NHL regular season, the Detroit Red Wings (39-35-8) dropped a 4-3 overtime decision vs. the Toronto Maple Leafs (52-26-4) Thursday night from Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Unlike Detroit’s previous few games against Stanley Cup Playoff-bound teams, the Maple Leafs were unable to give a day off to their premier stars, such as Auston Matthews…

Quick Hits: The Frustration Digest

Red Wings Rumblings The Stanley Cup Playoffs are underway, and while we all watch in envy of other teams, a recent quote from Dylan Larkin has caused some rifts in the fanbase.

So without further ado, here’s the clip…

What We Learned from Detroit’s End-of-Season Presser

The Red Wings concluded their season-ending press conferences yesterday, as the media heard from head coach Todd McLellan and general manager Steve Yzerman about all things 2024-25. As far as these sessions go, this one had the juice. One of Yzerman’s more famous quotes during a media availability was something along the lines of “I’m trying to answer your question without actually answering…
