Having Alex Nedeljkovic in the minors seems to be just what he needed to boost his confidence — but it’s a different story for another veteran. Nedeljkovic was assigned to the Grand Rapids Griffins for conditioning on Jan. 4, having gone almost a month since his last start with the Detroit Red Wings. Ville Husso and

Detroit — Alex Nedeljkovic wanted to get some work in, needed to get work in, and the Grand Rapids Griffins schedule supplied him with that opportunity. The Red Wings goaltender only played two games in the last month, and had been supplanted as Ville Husso’s back up by Magnus Hellberg. So when general manager Steve
With veteran reinforcements on the near horizon, Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman trimmed a rookie from the roster. The Wings on Sunday assigned Elmer Söderblom to the Grand Rapids Griffins, his second stint this season with the AHL affiliate. He was a healthy scratch Friday, indicating that although Derek Lalonde said last week
General manager Steve Yzerman solved one roster crunch with a bold move, but Jakub Vrana’s expendability may only be the beginning. That is the subject of this Detroit Red Wings mailbag, with reader Michael S. writing to ask, “What are the Wings going to do when the others come back?” In 10 days or so,
The losses are beginning to pile up for the Red Wings. Maybe a little frustration, also, for a team that seems to play well enough just to lose these days. Toronto sent the Wings (16-15-7) to their third consecutive loss Saturday, 4-1. It was the Wings’ fourth loss in five games, and they only have
Their third game in four nights yielded no better result than their first two. The Detroit Red Wings‘ losing streak grew to three as they fell, 4-1, to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday at Scotiabank Arena. The Wings have lost nine straight against the Leafs, all in regulation. Unlike the previous two games this
A lot of talk early this week, and for the last while actually, has been about the Red Wings roster and who might be headed to Grand Rapids or out of the lineup. Jonatan Berggren was one of the young players who appeared to be in slight danger of being sent down I-96 to the
The first thing Derek Lalonde did was to note the similarity. For the second straight time after a game at Little Caesars Arena, the Detroit Red Wings pointed to special teams as the reason behind their loss. Friday it was 3-2 to the Florida Panthers; Wednesday it was 5-1 to the New Jersey Devils. “We
Detroit − The Red Wings did a better job of keeping pucks out of their net Friday, but still aren’t putting enough of them into the net on the other side. And the special teams, both the penalty kill and power play, are a total disappointment. The Wings didn’t fall behind early, that was an
The Detroit Red Wings couldn’t turn an early lead into momentum, and once again their special teams were a letdown. The Florida Panthers converted on two power plays Friday at Little Caesars Arena, handing the Wings a second straight loss at home, 3-2. Jonatan Berggren scored a minute into the game, but the Panthers, a
Detroit — Defenseman Jake Walman talked last month about wanting to be a player the coaching staff and his teammates could count on. Walman wanted to establish himself as a regular, NHL player, someone who was in the lineup consistently and playing meaningful minutes and in every situation. Gradually, over the last several weeks, people
Dylan Larkin can add “three-time NHL All-Star” to his résumé. The Detroit Red Wings captain was among the selections announced Thursday evening, when initial rosters for next month’s event were revealed. Under a new format, the NHL department of hockey operations selected one player from each NHL team in each division, making up the initial
Detroit — No hockey team wants to fall behind, and need to stage a massive rally to get back and win a game. The Red Wings, who are not a dangerous offensive team, are certainly in that category. But they’ve made it particularly difficult for themselves in recent games. Wednesday’s 5-1 loss against New Jersey
Over the next couple weeks, the Detroit Red Wings stand to welcome back several forwards from lengthy absences. Robby Fabbri, Tyler Bertuzzi, and Filip Zadina are set to return and bring the organization up to full strength. But because these players will rejoin the team at varying points and need time to find their footing,
Derek Lalonde described the night as “incredibly frustrating.” The Detroit Red Wings were left to explain a 5-1 loss Wednesday after a good start turned into a disappointing finale. The New Jersey Devils built a two-goal lead during man advantages, and from there, the Wings could do little but note that they played well at
Detroit — The Red Wings returned to the business of playing hockey Wednesday, after days of roster speculation, but the result wasn’t what they were looking for. New Jersey scored two second period power-play goals, sparking the Devils to a convincing 5-1 victory over the Red Wings. Devils defenseman Dougie Hamilton scored the first power
The Detroit Red Wings were dinged while short-handed, and then they were just dinged. They didn’t give up much at even strength the first 40 minutes Wednesday at Little Caesars Arena, but once the New Jersey Devils got rolling, they rolled over the Wings, 5-1. The Wings came into the game having won three of
