The only question remaining for Jonatan Berggren’s teammates is his nickname. “Jonny Burgers,” Dylan Larkin said, his laughter evidence of the fun the Detroit Red Wings had in their last game at Little Caesars Arena for nearly two weeks. They head out Sunday on a five-game trip that will take them across the border and

The Detroit Red Wings can pack a winning streak as they head out on their longest trip of the season. They toppled the Vancouver Canucks, 5-2, in a Saturday matinee at Little Caesars Arena, using a quick start to string together their second straight victory. The teams meet again Monday night in Vancouver, as the

Just as they achieved full health, the Detroit Red Wings are likely to be without one, maybe two regulars. Forward Lucas Raymond limped off the practice facility inside Little Caesars Arena on Friday after colliding with teammate Ben Chiarot. Coach Derek Lalonde described Raymond as “in the day-to-day range,” and didn’t have much further information

Filip Zadina credited his puppy; his coach credited Zadina’s hard work during a long layoff. Call it a split, and call it reinforcement for the Detroit Red Wings as they cling to the hope of rising far enough in the standings to reach the playoffs. They take on the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday on a

Music was thumping. “Who’s feeling good today?” D.J. Chachi said into a microphone, standing in the corner of the gym at Chrysler Elementary on Detroit’s eastside on Wednesday. About 25 fifth graders started screaming — high-pitched, ear-shattering screams that echoed off the small gymnasium walls. “Thanks for letting us into your school,” Chachi said. “I

Filip Zadina broke into the smile the Detroit Red Wings have missed. Playing for the first time in three months, the former first-round pick found the back of the net for the first time this season, helping give the Wings something to celebrate. Their week of facing western Canadian foes continued Thursday with the Calgary

Associated Press |  Detroit Free Press Calgary Flames defenseman Rasmus Andersson was sent to the hospital Wednesday night after being struck by a vehicle while riding a scooter in Detroit. The team said Thursday that Andersson was riding a scooter to dinner at about 6 p.m. when he was hit. “He was going through a crosswalk,”

Tyler Bertuzzi scored for the Detroit Red Wings in the first period Tuesday against Edmonton. He snapped the puck from the right circle after a tidy pass from Lucas Raymond. He found an opening and pounced when he had the chance, driving toward the net, as always. The forward has a talent for getting to

Tyler Bertuzzi had a good laugh clearing up a bit of misinformation generated by a friend and teammate, happily revealing what he really did during the Detroit Red Wings’ bye week. Bertuzzi didn’t stay in town to work on his game, he just looked like he did. Four months into the season and after three

There were the goal posts, and the open net, and ultimately, a familiar feeling. The Detroit Red Wings continue their stretch of hosting western Canadian teams Thursday when the Calgary Flames come to town, eager to see better results than against the Edmonton Oilers. The final from Little Caesars Arena Tuesday read 5-2 in favor

The Detroit Red Wings had as tough as challenge as there is coming out of their break, facing the high-powered Edmonton Oilers. The western Canadian team, home to superstars Connor McDavid and Leon Draisatl, are trying to secure playoff positioning; the Wings are trying to rise into a spot. The Wings built an early lead

Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin begins this week with an honor and a challenge — and growing questions. He was named one of the NHL’s “Three Stars” for the week that ended Monday, the result of a highly productive and entertaining time at the All-Star Game. Tuesday brings the unique challenge of going up against

Detroit Red Wings (21-19-8) vs. Edmonton Oilers (28-18-4) When: 7:30 p.m. Where: Little Caesars Arena. TV: ESPN-plus or Hulu only.

The Oilers are 15-7-1 in road

Adding a projected 30-to-40-goal scorer a few weeks before the trade deadline is an enticing prospect for a team looking to put together a winning streak. Jakub Vrana appears to have “gotten his game in order,” as he was tasked by the Detroit Red Wings to do when he was assigned to the minors in

Ville Husso spent the break in in Orlando with his girlfriend and his dad. Jonatan Berggren went to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, and Robby Fabbri to Tulum, Mexico. They were all back to the thawing temperatures of metro Detroit in time for Sunday’s practice, which had the Detroit Red Wings at full health

Defenseman Moritz Seider hit on two of the major storylines as he eyeballed the Detroit Red Wings on the flip side of their bye week. They emerge from hibernation with 34 games left, starting with Tuesday’s home date against the Edmonton Oilers. The Oilers are a prime example of a team looking to shore up

Today is Feb. 3, 2023. It’s a perfectly innocuous date, at least until you shorten it to just the digits: 2/3/23. That’s 23-23, or as ESPN (and its ACC Network) has dubbed it: “Michael Jordan Day.” It’s all fine and good, we guess — there are worse ideas than a day devoted to Jordan’s greatest moments

Filip Zadina is the latest Detroit Red Wings’ player assigned to the minors to work on his game. Zadina, an underperforming first-round pick from 2018 who hasn’t played in three months, was sent to the Grand Rapids Griffins on Thursday. It was an expected move, given his long recovery following surgery, after he incurred a
