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
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
That the Detroit Red Wings were willing to lose Jakub Vrana for nothing is a clear sign they do not see a fit for him in their future. The immediate question is: What about the present? Vrana certainly wouldn’t be the first player placed on waivers — he cleared Wednesday afternoon — who returned to

Detroit — Goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic is headed to Grand Rapids to get in some work. The Red Wings assigned Nedeljkovic to their minor-league affiliate Wednesday, after the slumping goaltender made only two starts since Nov. 30, the last one on Dec. 8 (which was also Nedeljkovic’s last appearance). Nedeljkovic, 26, has played in nine games
The Detroit Red Wings have taken advantage of carrying three goaltenders to assign Alex Nedeljkovic to the minors. It’s a chance for Nedeljkovic, who has not played for the Wings in nearly a month, to get back to the form that prompted the Wings to acquire him in the summer of 2021, and won him

Detroit — The Red Wings had to make a roster decision to get under the 23-man limit for Wednesday’s game, and it was a stunner.
