When the NHL’s supposedly least-hated team, the Detroit Red Wings, face off against the Vancouver Canucks tonight (10 PM EST, FSD/Sportsnet Pacific/WXYT), there’s obviously little doubt that the Canucks remember this hit from the teams’ last meeting, a 4-2 Canucks victory on December 19th… And given that Ryan Kesler attempted to fight Niklas Kronwall take out Henrik Zetterberg’s...

Detroit Red Wings stay red hot

After winning their 17th straight home game last night at Joe Louis Arena, I think it is safe to say that the Red Wings are a force to be reckoned with this season.  The Wings now have an NHL-best 67 points, three clear of everyone else. Detroit is also riding a six game overall streak in addition to the 17-gamer at home, and the Wings have been playing gritty hockey and winning...

Red Wings earn road win, top spot in NHL

GLENDALE, Ariz. With a franchise record 15-game home winning streak and a Western Conference-best home mark of 18-2-1, you would think consistent road wins would be a luxury for the Detroit Red Wings. But in the NHL's suddenly superlative Central Division, road wins have become a necessity if you want to stay afloat in what's shaping up as one of the best races in league...

Red Wings-Maple Leafs wrap-up: Lesson unlearned, unearned
