In Red Wings Land
Red Wings’ moms trip breaks up mid-season monotony | MLive
The Red Wings hope to continue their success in Dallas Friday and Chicago on Sunday, their second moms trip (the other was during the 2015-16 season). They have taken dads trips every other season since 2005-06.
“Certainly, they deserve every bit as much as the dads to come and be a part of their sons’ journey and see firsthand what their sons’ lives are like on the road,” Blashill said. “It’s a different kind of atmosphere but a great one, nonetheless. It should be lots of fun.”
It’s always cool when the Wings do this trip.

Ted gave out five ‘F’ grades. I appreciate his tough standards when handing out his evaluations.

Helene, however, is a much nicer teacher because she didn’t give out a single ‘F.’

Exercise patience. This isn’t an easy season for the Detroit Red Wings, who are unequivocally the worst team in the NHL (even Tyler Bertuzzi feels a bit guilty about being named an All-Star). But they have to take a few steps back before they can go forward, so trust that GM Steve Yzerman is building for the long play.

Joe Veleno had an assist in Canada’s 6-1 win over Slovakia. He also made a funny face.
