The Red Wings say goodbye to the 2015-2016 season, and possibly one of the best players in the club's history. This post isn't meant to be a breakdown, or an analysis. The comments are not to shellack the team, or the organization. This is solely centered around the number 13.

MOROSI: Celebrating the greatest current playoff streak in North America, a narration about the Red Wings

"The city isn't perfect, the arena isn't either. Detroiters admit to that much. But every spring crowds of more than 20,000 fill the Joe Louis Arena, and when the puck drops on the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Winged Wheel is there." Despite backing into the playoffs, today, we celebrate

On this day 19 years ago, Fight Night at the Joe happened between Red Wings and Avalanche

It's already been 19 years since the Red Wings and Avalanche had one of the most storied brawls in NHL history. Today, we celebrate Fight Night at the Joe. Speaking for myself, 1997 was the year I became a Red Wings fan. So this entire sequence is what made me

Red Wings Goal Recap: How PK Mistakes can Cascade

Take a look at the goal above and come up with the name in your head that you immediately think is the person most-responsible for this goal being scored. It's Jonathan Ericsson isn't it? By the time the puck gets behind Petr Mrazek, he's the guy right there in front

Check out how a Blind Red Wings Fan watches Detroit Games

Redditor GrumpyFinn put this video up online today with a link in Reddit's /r/hockey titled "A few people in this sub have asked how I watch hockey while being blind, so I made a video." It's a quite informative piece on how somebody with a severe visual impairment can

Dylan Larkin Aces Development Camp Drills

Griffins Marlies Brawl: They Had It Coming

Last night the Griffins hosted the Toronto Marlies at Van Andel Arena, and trounced them 7-2. The Marlies were shit-heads all night, what with their diving that the refs fell for a couple times, their crosschecking, boarding, slashing, etc... I could tell early on in the game that if the

Red Wings fall to Coyotes in Overtime: Game Highlights

The Red Wings dropped a heartbreaker to Arizona on Tuesday night, dominating large stretches of play yet somehow getting shut down by a goalie who only put up a .900 save percentage. The highlights barely do it justice, but Detroit got let down by a combination of bounces, their defense,

Andreas Athanasiou Scores Another Unreal Goal

Tuesday night, Andreas Athanasiou did it again. He made the highlight reels when he single handedly stole the puck, flipped one defenseman's stick up in the air, undressed two defensemen, and twisted goalie Drew MacIntyre in knots before scoring yet another jaw dropping goal. Don't take my word for it

Red Wings Goal Analysis: Should Winnipeg's 2nd Goal Have Counted?

There's a lot to be unhappy about with the way the Red Wings lost their Valentine's Day game against the WInnipeg Jets. For the most part, there are a ton of Red Wings mistakes to hang onto when we're looking for reasons why Detroit couldn't get two points against a

Ryan Sproul And Marek Tvrdon Combine For OT Winner

Last Tuesday night the Griffins beat the Chicago Wolves 2-1 in overtime, thanks to a great zone entry and no look pass from Marek Tvrdon that set Ryan Sproul up perfectly for the OT winner. The Play The good part starts when Ryan Sproul knocks the puck out of the

Gustav Nyquist's Goal: 30 Selfish Seconds?

We've now had a full day to digest the awesomeness that was Gustav Nyquist's overtime game-winner against the Ottawa Senators on Saturday night. Just in case you're still having as much fun watching it as I am, you can take another look at the video above. Pure beauty, ain't it?

Detroit Red Wings Goal Breakdown: Good Backchecking, Strong Neutral Zone Play Earn Detroit a Game-Tying Goal

A commenter asked me to break down the Red Wings' fourth goal in their Friday Night game against the New Jersey Devils because the highlights package cuts off well after all the work is done for the Red Wings to recover the puck and get it into the New Jersey

Detroit Red Wings Goal Analysis: Brendan Smith's Empty Net Is from a Beautiful Breakout

Many of us joked last night that this empty-netter from Smith was selfish because he had a goal-starved Tomas Jurco in the middle of the ice with a perfect opportunity to get a bit of confidence going, but you all see that Abdelkader is in the picture too here and

Detroit Red Wings Goal Analysis: The Turnover that Turned the Game

By now, you've probably seen the Justin Abdelkader game-winner at least a dozen times. What a beautiful play to get the deciding goal in a game that decidedly wasn't really going the Wings' way last night. For many of us, we just knew when Pavel Datsyuk entered the zone against

Watch Niklas Kronwall's Game-Tying Goal in the Detroit Red Wings's 4-3 Overtime Win over the Pittsburgh Penguins

I don't know if I can accurately capture the feelings surrounding this goal if you weren't watching the game, but know that about ten minutes before this goal was scored, the Wings were down 3-1 and I started talking about how they were going to score a second just to

Detroit Red Wings vs. Toronto Maple Leafs Highlights

I kind of love this highlight package because not only is it the Leafs feed, which gives a different perspective on the highlights than most of us got to watch on FSD, but it also seems to be doing as much as it can to make this game look respectably

Detroit Red Wings Game Analysis: What Went Wrong on Getzlaf's Game-Winning Goal?

As the season goes on, I'm going to try to do more of these "Key Play" analyses for Red Wings games. They're not always going to be goals, but I think we can comfortably look at the Ryan Getzlaf goal with 24 seconds left in the Wings' game against the

Re-Watch: Gustav Nyquist's Game-Winning Goal in the Season Opener against Boston

It's a mid-afternoon on a Friday and the hockey season is getting into full-swing. Detroit won their season opener last night in satisfying-but-not-entirely-comfortable fashion against the Boston Bruins with the game-winning goal coming off what is supposed to be a rejuvenated power play for them this year with new assistant
