IT'S BAAAAACK. 5 straight for the Red Wings...can they make it 6? #LGRW

Was kinda difficult to put this one together while watching an intense ALCS game in support of the Blue Jays but here's the Detroit vs Edmonton game review! See everyone on Wednesday, one day after my birthday! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings hockeytownhardcore.wordpress.com/2025/10/19/g...

We're going to need a bigger memory book

Listen, Suàrez, you make for a terrible meme if you start redeeming yourself, alright?

Let's go Suàrez! BEST. THIRD. BASEMAN. EVER.

Emmitt Finnie winked at Mickey Redmond and gave him a fist bump at the end of the game before heading into the celebration. 😉👊 #LGRW

How much of this is sincere and how much is lip service to hold onto his job? We know how much of a shelter for bad behavior the NHL is and will likely continue to be at least for a while.

How many times am I gonna be able to say "no notes" after a Detroit game before it gets annoying? Finnie with his first two, Gibson standing tall and improving, and Larkin posting two of his own and big points night. Absolutely the gold standard. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Finnie gets his first two, Larks gets two, Gibby looking solid again, another one in the books under the W column. Could we have done better? Sure. But we did what we needed to win, yet again. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

That's one more for FINNIE! He struggled but an ENG is a goal all the same! 4-2 WINGS! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

It's been a while since I've done a double take like this. Gibson puts up the stone wall one way and then Skinner almost gets caught headed to the bench. I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING CRAZY PILLS! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Adaptation. Oilers turn it on in the last ten minutes so the Wings go harder. I love this team right now. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Rayzor's back on the bench? I knew I heard a collective sigh of relief from the fanbase for a reason. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Did you think we were gonna hold McJesus and Drai off the board forever? No way. Just some chippy persistent hockey gets that one past Gibby. 3-2 WINGS! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

I did not have a forechecking takeaway puck handling WIN from JT Compher on my bingo card for today. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Dammit, looks like Rayzor walked from the bench to the back. No idea what happened but I'm assuming the day to day thing he was dealing with just got irritated. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

That shot from Larks was so wanting to hit the back of the net that a fan was fooled and threw their hat onto the ice anyway. Rang off the post like he was AIMING for it! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

"One high stick, no call? Okay, whatever. Two high sticks, no call? Okay, fine, I'll take care of it." - Johansson, probably. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Puck dropped for the third and the pressure is back, things are steady, The Cat again looking for a solid look and gets one, but Skinner stones him. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Whether or not a prospect will do well in Detroit is like the difference between Datsyuk and Cholowski: one you barely knew about, one you didn't hear about, and the same one ended up becoming one of the best scorers and puck handlers of all time.

Gibson still strong, gonna have to work on tracking through screens. Finnie puts one up, pressure was good, great penalty kill, Larks puts himself on hatty watch, game still looks solid for the Wings. "More of the same!" #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Oh CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN! Larks just in the right place at the right time and zips it just outside the Office and suddenly Larks is on hatty watch! 3-1 WINGS! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Finnie looking for two, crashing the goal hard and almost registering another one after taking a few shots from the white sweaters. Another incident on the other end, similar, but thanks to Ben Chiarot. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Gibson definitely wants that one back; a floater gets pitched from the point and a redirection makes it so Gibby can't do anything about it. 2-1 WINGS! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

The Oilers are looking to make good on this Wings penalty kill but instead, the Wings not only rebound with hard pressure, Finnie makes good on a BRUTAL rebound and nets his first NHL goal! 2-0 WINGS! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

If there's anything you're guaranteed in hockey, it's that a team can only take so much continual pressure before a goal goes in. Larks makes good on that and keeps up his unreal play this season. 1-0 WINGS! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Puck dropped on the second period and my brain feels like a broken record because it's more of the same, more of the same, more of the same... and I'm feeling good. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Constant pressure, excellent looks, sharp defensive plays, Gibson standing tall when he needs to, Finnie disarms an almost breaking McDavid. 20 minutes in the books, we're still doing exactly what we need to. Everyone has a role. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

This is great. We're making Sinner work for every save he's getting. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

There are three rookies in the first two lines today and it feels insane that it doesn't feel like a risk. Finnie just did an amazing defensive move there to prevent a partial break. Everyone has a role. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Yet another awesome look by the boys and it looks like more of the same from the Winged Wheel. It's weird to say that phrase and be happy about it! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Why hello, Troy! Stetcher laid the stick down on a nice look from Kasper. #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Gibson starts, Finnie-Larkin-Raymond / Chiarot-Seider to take the first puck drop, typical suspects taking the ice at the other side, Skinner starting for the Oilers. Time for puck drop! #EDMvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

A little Sunday afternoon hockey!

RAYZOR IS ON THE IIIIIICE!

🚨 #REDWINGS ROSTER UPDATE: ✅ Lucas Raymond RETURNS to the lineup after missing 2 games due to injury! 🚫 Patrick Kane is OUT after an injury in the TBL game. #LGRW

Just saw something from David Pagnotta suggesting that Detroit is looking around for a home for a "defenseman" in exchange for a center. Rumored to be on the block is Gustafsson and Hamonic, both probably looked at as "don't like it here, you can leave" options. #LGRW #RedWings

"If you're going to be out there, let's move it forward." - Todd McLellan It looks like the team is creating an identity of quiet accountability. I love it. Kaner will be out, Larks will be in. Rayzor still day to day. Gibson starting. Emphasis on puck possession. #EDMvsDET #LGRW

The Oilers are in town and the Wings are not looking to stop their momentum anytime soon according to the Toddfather! #LGRW #RedWings #EDMvsDET 🏒 3:00 PM EST 🏟️ LCA, Detroit 📺 FDSN Detroit / Sportsnet 📻 97.1 FM The Ticket 🏁 Justin Kea, Eric Furlatt, Dan Kelly, and Devin Berg

Just when you think Evander couldn't get any lower.... goddammit.

Gotta be the cap. 💪 #LGRW

While the Red Wings weren't exactly dictating the pace of the game against Tampa Bay, they certainly did exactly what they needed to in order to get the job done when it counted. I go more into this in my newest Game Review! hockeytownhardcore.wordpress.com/2025/10/18/g...

I mean, these should be obvious, but here goes: hell of a rebound night for Gibby, Larks with a HECKIN BEAUT on the breakaway to win the game, and a first goal for ASP. Need I say more? GOOD GAME WINGS! #TBLvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

It was a well fought game by the boys, right from top to bottom, adapting well from their last stellar game against Florida to a different system with Tampa and just making it happen, mistakes and all. #TBLvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

GET HECKED, TAMPA BAY! Larks gets possibly the best OT look of his career and he makes absolute sure he doesn't come to regret it on the breakaway! 2-1 OT, WINGS WINNNN! #TBLvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Puck's dropped and it's going into Overtime! #TBLvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

After a pretty tense period of exciting third period hockey, Tampa ties it up and we go into OT, not one of my favorite times as a Wings fan. #TBLvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

I think Larks will be just fine, he's still speeding around, finding his edges just fine. #TBLvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Holy heckin, Finnie! That's what that red fucking STREAK across the ice, getting ROBBED by Vasi was! Still, a wonderful opportunity and a wild game even though it's tied! #TBLvsDET #LGRW #RedWings

Welp, that goalie screen was impossible to see through, and a Bolts shot from the point slips it through every body, including the goalie. 1-1 TIE #TBLvsDET #LGRW #RedWings
