After getting beaten on the road by a bottom-of-the-barrel Buffalo Sabres squad on Wednesday, the Detroit Red Wings (5-3-0) looked unenthusiastic and, honestly, played their worst game of the season in a 7-2 loss against the Patrick Roy-coached New York Islanders (4-3-0) Thursday night at UBS Arena in Belmont, New York.
Similar to their start in Buffalo, the Wings struggled to get shots on goal against goaltender David Rittich and found themselves down 2-0 entering the first intermission ...
Tonight is officially listed as a home game for Edmonton, but it feels like part of an eight-game road trip. The Oilers played the Rangers, Islanders, Devils, Red Wings, and Senators on the road, and they host the Canadiens tonight before playing in Seattle and Vancouver this coming Saturday and Sunday. It’s an odd one-game…

I wish I knew what it is about October that causes the Oilers to look so uninterested in playing hockey, but that was the feeling around these parts after watching the boys drop three straight to the Islanders, Devils, and Red Wings. It wasn’t that any of those teams were world beaters, but the boys…
Oh hey there, friend.
It’s game day for the Red Wings — the start of a quick road trip starting in Buffalo tonight. The Sabres are 2-4-0 to start their season, so maybe not much has changed there. Too early to tell. Zach Benson looks good, though!
All right, so, the Wings are going to be without Patrick Kane tonight and tomorrow (oh yeah, it’s a back-to-back road trip by the way). Kane was injured (upper body) during Friday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. My guess is that the lineup...

On October 21st in 2010, the Detroit Red Wings honored the recent passing of 38 year season ticket holder and super-fan Kenneth Rucker, a retired Chrysler forklift driver who suffered a fatal heart attack at the age of 63.
Recognized by the Joe Louis Arena faithful simply as the "Orange Hat Guy", Rucker was often featured on the scoreboard screen during Red Wings home games accompanied by R.E.M.
The Detroit Red Wings are in a position to make some trades, and they have started the season on the winning side of things with a 5-1-0 record. Part of the success has come from rookies being injected into the lineup to provide the team with some life. Elliotte Friedman discussed the Red Wings' roster situation on 32 Thoughts and mentioned that Detroit could look to deal from depth and trade. Players being dealt that could come from this are Erik Gustafsson, Justin Holl, and Jonatan Berggren....
Six games into the 2025-26 National Hockey League season, it’s clear that the Edmonton Oilers are struggling early for a third consecutive season. After going 2-0-1 over their first three contests, the Oilers are now mired in a three-game losing skid, falling to the New York Islanders, New Jersey Devils, and Detroit Red Wings. Edmonton…
From bad to worse. Any hope the Edmonton Oilers had in salvaging their five-game eastern road trip blew up in their face Sunday afternoon, losing 4-2 to the Detroit Red Wings. While the team secured an ugly 2-0 shutout victory over the New York Rangers to kick things off, they put up a stinker against…
It’s a bit of a lighter week for the 2-3 Islanders, with another day before they host the (still winless) Sharks on Tuesday, the (shockingly Atlantic leading) Red Wings on Thursday, then visit Philadelphia on Saturday. With two wins at the end of last week, they avoided falling into a nightmare start, but a variety […]
After a pair of mistake-riddled losses to the Islanders and Devils, the Oilers made their way to Detroit to take on the red-hot Red Wings in search of simplicity. When the boys are getting caved in by errors, the best approach to climbing out of the hole is by playing simple hockey instead of trying…
Another game, another ugly outing for the Edmonton Oilers. On Sunday afternoon, the Oilers fell 4-2 to the Detroit Red Wings, bringing their losing streak to three games to give them a 2-3-1 record. Let’s take a look at what happened in this one. Like Saturday, the first period was scoreless, with the opposition team…
Pretty damn busy week for the Detroit Red Wings. Also pretty damn successful.
A couple of months ago, you may have looked at the schedule for this week and thought to yourself “that’s a brutal stretch.” Despite a handful of division opponents and a team with the two “best” players in the NHL, the Wings are on a five-game heater. The success comes off of strong efforts from goaltending, defense, and captain Dylan Larkin, who has 11 points on the season as I write this Sunday evening.
