This is Fabbri’s third career ACL tear. His first two came on his left knee. This one originated from the right. Recovering from one ACL tear alone is an exercise in agony — to have three occur in your life really makes you think about your future. All the best to Fabbri and hopes for
After a stretch against some of the best teams in the NHL, the Detroit Red Wings are three games below .500 – and the team kicks off a four-game road trip out west against the Calgary Flames. The thing is, Detroit’s last few losses haven’t just been tough – they’ve been disastrous. The team is
Steve Kornacki | Special to The Detroit News Detroit — Offense will be at a premium in the first three games of a Red Wings road trip beginning Saturday night in Calgary. Injury has claimed Robby Fabbri and Tyler Bertuzzi also will be unavailable for action. That takes two of Detroit’s top four goal scorers out of
It’s just over halfway through the first period. The Detroit Red Wings and the Minnesota Wild are tied up 1-1. Minnesota’s Joel Eriksson Ek harmlessly tossed the puck into the offensive zone. Never afraid to play the puck, Detroit’s starting goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic takes a whack at the puck to keep it away from the
Robby Fabbri’s season is over, and the Detroit Red Wings are left to hope a young player can help fill the void. Saying he “feels horrible” for Fabbri, coach Jeff Blashill announced Friday, hours before the Wings left for western Canada, “we suspect Fabbs tore his ACL. We’re consulting with another specialist just to get a second

Last night’s game against the Wild was something else. If you missed it, at the end of the second period there was a large scrum. The lowlight of the event was Matt Dumba flipping Lucas Raymond and punching his head into the ice repeatedly while the refs were distracted breaking up the scrum. Raymond’s blood
While the results haven’t gone the Detroit Red Wings way yet, it is clear that Jakub Vrana is already making an impact in the lineup. Before the season even started, Vrana was knocked out of the lineup due to a shoulder injury. The subsequent surgery knocked him out until early March. Vrana’s absence was a
Marc Staal recalled a funny moment recently: The Detroit Red Wings were playing the Carolina Hurricanes, and he found himself battling his brother, Jordan Staal, in a corner. An official blew his whistle, and Marc was assessed a holding call, much to Jordan’s delight. “It was a bad penalty, bad call,” Staal said. “He was
The Detroit Red Wings rallied around one another when they most needed it, restoring a measure of pride as they embark on a trek out west. It speaks to how they’ve tumbled that a 6-5 shootout loss begets optimism, but that’s where the Wings are as they pack up and head to Calgary, where a
TSN: OHL expels Flint president Christensen Long story short: This guy is racist This story got buried yesterday. It’s not often you see such harsh punishment (if any) from the OHL. This guy has been around development camps for multiple NHL teams, including the Red Wings (according to his profile on the Firebirds website). He
The Red Wings hosted the Wild Thursday night in what would be redemption from Tuesday’s atrociously humbling loss to the Coyotes.

Detroit — Red Wings fans at Little Caesars Arena went home Thursday thoroughly entertained. The Red Wings lost 6-5 to the Minnesota Wild in the shootout, and they’ve been doing a lot of that lately (losing). But all the extracurricular activities that happened made for quite a fun hockey atmosphere, and this particular night the Wings
The Detroit Red Wings overcame an early case of nerves and, helped by Jakub Vrana, managed to take a step towards redemption. Their contest against the playoff-primed Minnesota Wild on Thursday at Little Caesars Arena was magnified by having been booed off home ice two nights earlier following a loss to one of the worst teams
The game basically started with the Wings misplaying the puck along their boards, allowing Freddy Gaudreau to make a tic-tac-toe pass to Matt Boldy (who scored a hatty against Detroit about a month ago) via Kevin Fiala. 1-0 Wild. Sure, there was a faceoff and stuff before that, but within 90 seconds Detroit found itself

Detroit — Goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic made the highlight reel for the rest of time. Nedeljkovic attempted to bat away a bouncing puck, and wound up knocking the puck through his legs at 12 minutes 7 seconds of the first period, giving Minnesota a 2-1 lead. Nedeljkovic just beat himself 5-hole; swatted the puck right in,

Detroit — One way the Red Wings can help themselves get out of this recent rut is play faster. For a team with a decent amount of speed, and one that had been playing aggressively for much of the season, the last two losses in particular have been perplexing. The Red Wings were dialed down, not
