Sherri West+FollowRed Wings drop the ball at homeA golden chance slipped away for the Detroit Red Wings as they fell 4-1 to the Utah Mammoth, despite playing at home against a tired team. The Wings matched Utah in shots, shut down all four of their power plays, and even won the face-off battle, but just couldn’t find that extra gear. On the bright side, John Leonard stepped up in Patrick Kane’s absence, notching an assist and showing he might be ready for a bigger NHL role. With a tough home-and-home against the Capitals coming up, it’s crunch time—can the Wings bounce back and prove they belong with the league’s best? #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings00Share
Molly Tucker+FollowDeBrincat’s hot streak lifts Detroit to firstAlex DeBrincat just became the fastest Red Wings player to hit 20 goals in a season since Henrik Zetterberg’s prime, and it’s making a real difference for Detroit. With his recent two-goal game, DeBrincat has helped push the Red Wings to the top of the Atlantic Division, and he’s been on fire—scoring in seven of his last eight games. For a team that’s struggled with consistency, this surge is turning heads. Can DeBrincat keep this up and bring playoff hockey back to Detroit? What do you think is fueling his breakout run? #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings00Share
William Morrow+FollowDetroit’s youngest line shakes up the Red WingsDetroit’s youngest trio is turning heads and testing nerves this season. Emmitt Finnie, Nate Danielson, and Marco Kasper are getting a crash course in NHL life, making big plays one night and rookie mistakes the next. Finnie’s leap from the WHL straight to the Red Wings is rare, and Danielson’s recent points hint at real promise. But with turnovers and missed chances piling up, it’s clear these guys are learning under pressure. Detroit fans—how do you feel about the team betting on youth right now? Is this the rebuild we’ve been waiting for, or is it too much, too soon? #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings10Share
Martha Garza+FollowRed Wings shake up: Kane out, Leonard inPatrick Kane is sidelined again for the Red Wings, and Detroit is calling up John Leonard—who’s been on fire with the Griffins, leading the AHL in goals and game-winners. Leonard’s getting a shot on the second line, and fans are eager to see if his hot streak continues in the NHL. Meanwhile, Jonatan Berggren, a fan favorite who’s struggled to find his place, is on waivers. If he clears, he’ll get a fresh start back in Grand Rapids. How do you feel about these moves? Can Leonard make an impact, and is this the end for Berggren in Detroit? #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings10Share
Christopher Li+FollowRed Wings’ next big thing: Eddie GenborgEddie Genborg is quickly becoming the name to watch in Detroit’s hockey future. At just 18, he’s already making waves in Sweden’s top league, racking up 15 points in 26 games against grown men. That’s not just impressive—it’s a sign he could be a real force when he finally hits the NHL, possibly as soon as 2027. Genborg’s blend of size, grit, and scoring touch is exactly what the Red Wings have been building toward. Imagine a roster stacked with homegrown talent—how do you think this youth movement will shape Detroit’s next era? #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings00Share
Martha Garza+FollowRed Wings’ big miss: Why Quinn Hughes isn’t coming to DetroitQuinn Hughes is heading to Minnesota, not Detroit, and that’s a tough pill for Red Wings fans who hoped the Norris Trophy winner would anchor the blue line. Despite having the assets, Detroit’s talks with Vancouver fizzled—mainly because the Canucks wanted a young star the Wings weren’t willing to give up, likely Simon Edvinsson. With Edvinsson’s rise, it’s easy to see why Detroit held back, but missing out on Hughes stings. Now, the focus shifts to the team’s young core and possible moves before the trade deadline. Would you have traded Edvinsson for Hughes? #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings00Share
Molly Tucker+FollowRed Wings’ Kane closing in on Modano’s recordPatrick Kane is just nine points away from breaking Mike Modano’s all-time points record for U.S.-born NHL players, and Detroit fans are buzzing. Kane’s recent performance in the Red Wings’ 4-0 win over the Blackhawks showcased his signature skill and leadership, pushing Detroit to second in the Atlantic Division. With his track record—three Stanley Cups, multiple MVP awards, and over 1,300 career points—Kane’s pursuit of this milestone feels like a defining moment for both his career and the Red Wings’ season. How do you think Kane’s legacy stacks up against Modano’s? #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings01Share
Sherri West+FollowRed Wings surge: Gibson shines, Kane nears 500Detroit’s road trip just flipped the script on their season. John Gibson, once doubted, pulled off two shutouts and suddenly looks like the backbone the Wings needed. With Detroit now tied for second in the Atlantic, momentum is real—and it’s not just Gibson making headlines. Patrick Kane is just two goals away from joining the elite 500-goal club for American-born players. He’s also closing in on Mike Modano’s all-time points record. How do you see this new energy shaping the Red Wings’ playoff hopes? Who’s your pick for team MVP so far? #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings00Share
Martha Garza+FollowRed Wings shift focus: Rivalry night vs BlackhawksQuinn Hughes isn’t coming to Detroit, and honestly, that’s probably for the best. The Red Wings kept their core intact and can now zero in on what matters most: a heated showdown with the Blackhawks. Even with Connor Bedard sidelined, Chicago has plenty of firepower, so Detroit can’t let its guard down. The real story, though, is how the Wings’ 2023 draft class is already making waves—guys like Danielson and Sandin-Pellikka are showing why the future looks bright. Would you have traded the farm for Hughes, or are you happy with the Yzerplan? Let’s hear your take! #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings00Share
Martha Garza+FollowGibson’s 25th Shutout: Turning Point?Big night for John Gibson! The Red Wings’ new netminder just notched his first shutout in Detroit, stopping all 39 shots from the Canucks.

Gibson’s season’s been rocky, and while this is a huge confidence boost, the jury’s still out. Is this the start of a comeback, or just a flash? Let’s see if he can keep the momentum rolling! #Sports #IceHockey #RedWings00Share
