The Grand Rapids Griffins unveiled new jerseys on Thursday and, as I said at the time, there are four things that stick out out to me as feeling a bit sloppy.  As such, I’ve drawn up some tweaks to the design that I think resolve those issues. I’ll say off the top that, no, I

In the second-biggest announcement of the 1:56PM to 2:00PM news cycle on Thursday, the Grand Rapids Griffins unveiled new home and away jerseys. None of the team’s logos or colors have changed but the new jerseys give additional emphasis on red and swap out silver for gold. Both the home and road jersey now feature

DetroitHockey.Net turns 28 today. For the first time in a while, I don’t have anything to say regarding the site’s birthday.  I’m used to scrambling for some profound collection of words but this time I don’t even have anything particularly superficial. So I’m just going to skip right on to my annual tradition of talking

With the Grand Rapids Griffins bidding auf wiedersehen to Taro Hirose after five seasons earlier today, I got to thinking about how different the Griffins’ roster will look next season. Grand Rapids will lose five of their top ten scorers and ten of their top twenty. Top scorer Jonatan Berggren, seventh-leading scorer Simon Edvinsson, and

I was beginning to wonder if the Red Wings were going to bother formally announcing jersey numbers for their summer free agent signings, as it’s much later into the offseason than when they did that last year, but today they did just that via social media.

HEADED TO THE TARASENK-SHOW! The #RedWings today

The Red Wings kicked off their summer Development Camp this week and, as has become their tradition, didn’t publicly announce jersey numbers for any of the attendees.

Meaningful games in March and April. That was the goal last fall, supposedly, so by that metric we should consider the 2023-24 Detroit Red Wings’ season a success. Of course it’s not that simple.  With a seemingly-massive lead in the playoff race after tearing through their January and February schedule, it looked like those meaningful

A trademark application for that name was filed by Uyte, LLC, on Friday.  Uyte is the company that filed trademark applications for five names on Tuesday and added one for “Utah Yetis” on Thursday.
