If you were to ask me if Simon Edvinsson would make the Detroit Red Wings roster about two months ago, I would have said with the utmost confidence, “100% yes.” Now, after free agency and some shakeup amongst the roster, things may not feel the same. It still seems like the Detroit Red Wings will
The Detroit Red Wings and General Manager (GM) Steve Yzerman have had quite the roller coaster of an offseason. Anticipation led to questions, which then led to surprises and good fortune. For the most part, the dust seems to have settled. The rinks are empty, the beaches are full, and the prices for a tee
The annual Traverse City prospects tournament for the Detroit Red Wings has been announce to start September 14th. This year’s tournament will include the Red Wings, Columbus Blue Jackets, Toronto Maple Leafs, and Dallas Stars, down a team from last year’s tournament. This year’s tournament is expected to be packed with top-end prospects from all
One of the areas that needed to be addressed by the Detroit Red Wings this off-season was finding a solid backup goaltender. Ville Husso’s first season with the Wings was a good one overall, but when Husso needed a night off, the game usually didn’t end well. Husso also played a lot of games last
The Detroit Red Wings drafted their top goaltending prospect, Sebastian Cossa, with the No. 15 overall pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Level Draft. In fact, general manager Steve Yzerman traded up to assure them of his services. When the trade was announced, many expected (myself included) that the goaltending-needy Red Wings were eying Jesper
Associated Press | The Detroit News Frisco, Texas – Dallas Stars general manager Jim Nill signed a two-year contract extension less than a month after being named GM of the year following the team’s run to the Western Conference Final. The deal announced Monday would keep Nill with the Stars through the 2025-26 season. The
Daniel Sprong may prove to be one of those bargain free-agent additions for the Detroit Red Wings that we’ve quickly grown accustomed to since Steve Yzerman took over the reins of the organization. Sprong, 26, a product of the Netherlands, enjoyed a breakout season last year with the Seattle Kraken, where he totaled 46 points,
Detroit Red Wings prospect Noah Dower Nilsson will be sidelined for an extended period of time following shoulder surgery, as reported initially by Henrik Leman of Rackapucker.com. Bob Duff of Detroit Hockey Now recently pointed out that Dower Nilsson’s name was missing when the Swedish roster was announced for this summer’s World Junior Showcase; now
(Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images) In 2019, Steve Yzerman made his return to Detroit after spending eight seasons with the Tampa Bay Lightning as their General Manager. In his time in Tampa, Yzerman rebuilt the Lightning into a playoff and Stanley Cup contender, ending up making a Stanley Cup Finals appearance in 2015 and eventually
Marco Kasper will be showing up at Detroit Red Wings camp with a diploma — but as good as that looks on a resumé, he likely will need more work experience. The Wings got an all-too-brief look at their prize pick from the 2022 draft when Kasper flew from Sweden to Detroit in late March, and
The Detroit Red Wings have made some signings during the summer that will beef up their defense core moving forward. One of those moves was to sign defender Justin Holl to a three-year, $10.2 million contract to join the Red Wings’ defense core. Holl comes to Detroit from the Maple Leafs organization, having spent the
I know it sounds unrealistic, but it already seems like a make-or-break year for Detroit Red Wings forward Joe Veleno. Veleno, 23, has become a regular in Detroit’s lineup over the past two seasons, and while he’s shown improvement in some areas of his game from year-to-year, 2023-24 is shaping up to be a crucial
If you’re one of the Detroit Red Wings fans disappointed by Steve Yzerman’s addition of J.T. Compher, read on. You just might be sleeping on what the forward brings to the lineup. Even the most patient fans of the Red Wings entered this offseason with at least some level of elevated expectations. The so-called Yzerplan has
Professional sports are a transient business these days. Franchises relocate, leaving entire cities in the lurch. Players bolt, too, taking advantage of free agency when they can. Trade deadlines encourage the movement — incentivize it, even — and the business of tanking means veteran players often get shown the door before anybody’s ready for them
Since the dawn of advertising, mascots have been used to sell things. In Michigan, there are beloved totems of sports teams, beverages, restaurant brands and more that have become part of the culture. Some date back decades, while others are just starting to get a little time in the limelight. From gnomes to Noids, here’s
Things are looking pretty different for the Detroit Red Wings in terms of their goaltending pool after free agency and the draft. Ville Husso remains as the main fixture as two new goaltenders signed contracts and two others departed the organization. As the Red Wings are looking to be more competitive with each passing season,
Detroit — The pictures were all over social media and for many Red Wings fans, it was a stark realization of how old many of them are. The pictures of Marco Kasper, 19, graduating high school in Sweden earlier this spring and beaming in his school uniform. It shows how relatively young Kasper still is.
It is not the most exciting notion, but the Detroit Red Wings should consider circling back to Pius Suter. I often find myself with wavering opinions regarding Detroit’s former versatile forward. I feel like Michael Scott from the show ‘The Office’ when he’s describing to Jan what it is like to get a vasectomy and
In a few years, one might look back and say, “Do you remember when Kailer Yamamoto was a Detroit Red Wings forward?” it might end up being a great trivia question. Technically, Yamamoto was a Detroit Red Wing, though that did not last long. The Detroit Red Wings went out and traded for Kailer Yamamoto
Detroit — The decision of prospect Dylan James to play college hockey at North Dakota was roundly given a big thumbs-up by the Red Wings. In a way, it’s easy to understand. As Kris Draper, assistant general manager/director of amateur scouting, said after the Wings drafted James last year, there’s simply a limited number of
