William Morrow+FollowDetroit’s unsung fourth line is quietly dominatingDetroit’s fourth line—Soderblom, Rasmussen, and Appleton—has been locking things down defensively all season, outpacing even the team’s top stars in puck possession. They haven’t scored yet, but their 57.4% Corsi rating is the best on the Red Wings, and they’re among the NHL’s elite for limiting opponents’ chances. Watching them, you can see how much they control the play, even if the goals haven’t come. With the trade deadline coming up, is it time to trust this group and focus on adding firepower elsewhere? What do you think—should the Wings keep this trio together or shake things up? #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
Christopher Li+FollowGibson Shuts Down Leafs, Eyes Vezina?Wings fans, is John Gibson the missing piece we’ve been waiting for? After stonewalling the Maple Leafs with 30 saves in a 2-1 win, even Simon Edvinsson called him a legit Vezina candidate. The chemistry is real, and Gibson’s stats since December are unreal. With King Larkin sealing the deal, could Gibson outduel Wedgewood and Thompson for the Vezina? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
Martha Garza+FollowRed Wings Eye Faulk for Playoff PushHockeytown fans, could Justin Faulk be the missing piece for the Wings’ blue line? With Stevie Y possibly breaking his trade deadline tradition, a deal for the Blues’ veteran D-man is on the table. Faulk isn’t just a rental—he’d bring stability and scoring to Detroit’s second pair, letting young guns like Sandin-Pellikka and Johansson develop in protected minutes. The cost? Max Plante and picks. Is this the move that finally gets the Wings over their late-season slump? #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW10Share
Jason Dawson+FollowDetroit’s savvy signings spark Red Wings’ surgeDetroit’s front office pulled off a quiet masterclass this offseason. Instead of chasing big-name free agents, GM Steve Yzerman focused on smart, affordable veterans—and it’s paying off. Mason Appleton has brought grit and reliability to the bottom six, stepping up whenever the team needed him. Meanwhile, James van Riemsdyk, on a bargain contract, is delivering double-digit goals and steady leadership. These moves have given the Red Wings the depth and stability their young core needed. What do you think—should Detroit keep betting on these under-the-radar vets, or aim for a splashier move next? #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
William Morrow+FollowWings Hold Firm: Edvinsson & ASP UntouchableHot trade talk around Rasmus Andersson is heating up, but Yzerman and the Red Wings brass are drawing a hard line—Simon Edvinsson and Axel Sandin-Pellikka are strictly off-limits. Even with the Bruins dangling Lohrei and a first, Detroit won’t mortgage the future for a rental. Unless Andersson comes with an extension, don’t expect Stevie Y to blink first. Thoughts on who else could be in play if Calgary pushes? #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
stacy28+FollowWings Draw a Line in Andersson Trade TalksYzerman’s Red Wings are in the thick of the playoff race and now eyeing Rasmus Andersson to bolster the blue line. But here’s the inside scoop: Detroit’s not budging on their top prospects, Edvinsson and Sandin Pellikka—they’re off limits. With the Bruins and Sens circling too, this could turn into a real bidding war. Would you risk the future for a shot at Andersson? #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
Martha Garza+FollowDeBrincat’s OT Heroics Fuel Wings’ Rivalry WinCat’s out of the bag—Alex DeBrincat is quietly becoming the engine for the Wings’ playoff push. His three-point night against the Canes (including a clutch OT assist) not only put Detroit over a top rival but also has him pacing for a career-best 80+ points. Pairing with Copp and Kaner, DeBrincat’s two-way game is making a real difference. If this line keeps rolling, Hockeytown could be buzzing come playoff time! #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
William Morrow+FollowRed Wings eye big blue line upgradeDetroit’s first-place Red Wings could be gearing up for a major move—rumors are swirling about a possible trade for defenseman Rasmus Andersson. With the team’s young defense core showing promise but lacking veteran depth, adding Andersson could be the missing piece for a real playoff push. He’s having a standout season and would bring experience to help steady the blue line. If Yzerman pulls this off, it could signal Detroit’s most aggressive bid for a division title in years. What do you think—should the Wings go all-in for Andersson? #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
david52+FollowRed Wings Eye Dougie Hamilton Trade SplashWings fans, it looks like Stevie Y is ready to flip the script at the deadline! After years as sellers, Detroit is now in the mix for All-Star blueliner Dougie Hamilton, who’s reportedly itching to leave Jersey. With the Wings’ cap space and playoff push, could we see Hamilton rocking the Winged Wheel before the Olympic break? The rumored package isn’t as wild as you’d think—this could be a game-changer for Motown’s D. Thoughts on the fit? #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
Christopher Li+FollowVan Riemsdyk’s spark lifts Red Wings offenseJames van Riemsdyk is proving to be the Red Wings’ secret weapon this season. After a mid-season line shuffle, he’s not only found his scoring touch but has helped jumpstart teammates like Lucas Raymond and J.T. Compher. With five points in just two games since the change, van Riemsdyk’s net-front presence and power play skills are giving Detroit the depth scoring they’ve been missing. If this keeps up, he could be the difference-maker in the Red Wings’ push for their first playoff spot in nearly a decade. What do you think—can this new energy carry Detroit into the postseason? #Sports #IceHockey #LGRW00Share
