Detroit — There is a path for forward Lucas Raymond to make the Red Wings roster. But for it to happen, Raymond is going to have to make a jaw-dropping impact in the two-week series of games. It can be done. Dylan Larkin did it in 2015 to make the Wings’ roster, instead of apprenticing in Grand Rapids.
Detroit native Jalen Smereck is taking an indefinite leave of absence after the 24-year-old defenseman with HC Donbass in the Ukraine was the target of a racist gesture on the weekend in the Ukrainian Hockey League. In an Instagram post on Tuesday, Smereck, a Black player who spent his youth hockey career with Little Caesars, the Oakland

Folks! It’s time for your favorite part of the season and mine: it’s time for all the guesswork that goes into having seen the Red Wings play exactly zero games for the upcoming season and taking wild stabs at what we think is going to happen. I’ve lost count on these over the years but
Jeff Blashill likened his Detroit Red Wings coaching staff’s approach to the exhibition slate to writing a bunch of formulas and then wondering which work. Juggling eight games in 11 days, beginning with Wednesday’s test at the Chicago Blackhawks, matters because this next week and a half will go a long way toward determining several
Preseason starts tonight – Detroit @ Chicago 8:30pm ET. Available on NHLN Detroit plays in Chicago tonight on the road to start their preseason. Expect a road crew for that one as the Wings’ next game is tomorrow at home and Detroit cares more about selling preseason game tickets at home than in Chicago. Not
Before the regular season, the Detroit Red Wings will have the preseason to finalize roster decisions and shake off a bit more of that offseason rust. Let’s look at some of the storylines to keep an eye on through the eight games. The Opponents: Sept. 29: Chicago Blackhawks Sept. 30: Buffalo Sabres Oct. 2: Columbus
Detroit Red Wings head coach Jeff Blashill continues to have more decisions to make as the preseason creeps closer. Beyond deciding his lineup for the first exhibition tilt against Chicago tomorrow, Blashill needs to determine how the preseason will affect his roster decisions should Jakub Vrana miss significant time while also having to fill the

Traverse City — The first stage is done, now it’s on to the next part for the Red Wings. They completed the training camp portion of the exhibition season Tuesday with a sixth consecutive day of practices, and raced out of Centre Ice Arena back down Interstate 75 to Detroit. Now, it’s on to an eight-game exhibition
Traverse City — Danny DeKeyser was in the lineup to start last season, but you could tell something wasn’t quite right. Having had back surgery, which pretty much wiped out DeKeyser’s 2019-20 season (he only played eight games), DeKeyser returned to action but wasn’t the same player. Some of DeKeyser’s strength wasn’t there, and it was

Sam Gagner was quietly one of the more efficient members of the Detroit Red Wings bottom-six in 2020-21. Will the 2021-22 season be more of the same for the veteran forward?

Bobby Ryan looks to broaden game to earn Red Wings contract – MLive “I would like to broaden my game, be a little more physical, a little more demanding of the puck below the circles and holding it and ragging it instead of taking opportunities to create,” Ryan said Monday during training camp in Traverse
TRAVERSE CITY —Bobby Ryan kept his hopes up, even as the phone call he really wanted didn’t come and the off-season turned to the near-season. He finally heard from the Detroit Red Wings just before the start of training camp, when he received a professional tryout invitation. Ryan, 34, joined the Wings last October, and
The Detroit Red Wings don’t expect Jakub Vrana to be ready by the beginning of the season. This certainly puts Detroit behind the eight ball a bit–but it also opens up some possibilities. Jeff Blashill didn’t have update on Jakub Vrana (shoulder, seeing a specialist today) but mentioned there’s possibility Red Wings will have to
Traverse City — Bobby Ryan never has been in this position before, and admits it’s different. Weird. Unsettling, even. Here’s Ryan, one of the best goal-scorers and exciting players in the NHL since being drafted second overall in 2005, is in Red Wings’ training camp on a professional tryout. No guarantees, no contract; just the hope maybe something
Expectations were quite low for Marc Staal heading into the ’20-’21 season after the New York Rangers sent the Detroit Red Wings a second round pick to take on his contract.
