Heading into Thanksgiving just want to say I’m thankful for everyone who engages here and with my Substack. I had lost the passion for writing and often felt like I had to chase “perfect, airtight logic” for every article. I think I’ve found a sweet spot now and it’s re-energized me to write more

There are no bad ideas

That loss sucks but I love seeing that fire and emotion at the end of the game from this team.

yeah lucas raymond remains elite

what is the point of travis hamonic

that entire goal against stems from a really dumb icing by Hamonic

this is a beautiful graphic

At 23 years old, Lucas Raymond is currently producing more expected goals above replacement/60 (xGAR/60) and scoring more than both Mitch Marner and Nikita Kucherov did at the same age. The Red Wings have a superstar and he’s locked up on a ridiculously team-friendly deal

Wings W Whiskey tasting Smoked chicken wings Elite Saturday

Just have Talbot start every game the rest of the way

Columbus is exploiting Detroit’s poor man-to-man switches in the high slot right now and it is killing the Wings

taps the sign

Cheers to the weekend folks we made it

What happens when Detroit’s top guys get shut down? A result like last night’s 5-0 loss to the Islanders. But 21 games in, Detroit’s top guys have been among the best in the league. They just need to get help from someone open.substack.com/pub/prashant...

This is the 7th time in 12 starts that Gibson has given up 4 or more goals

This is pathetic

That’s not a goal Gibson can give up

Edvinsson’s 15th minor penalty of the season already. He’s gotta cut down his PIM’s

That was an absolutely awful change by Kasper and Kane leading to that Islanders goal

Detroit’s Core Four Is Elite. The rest? Not so much open.substack.com/pub/prashant...

Cheers to the pre-weekend, it’s been an insane week already

Detroit's best players have been great to start the season, but how do they stack up against the rest of the NHL? @prashanthiyer.bsky.social's analysis here shows that they may be the best "core" in the league right now... 👀 #LGRW open.substack.com/pub/prashant...

Nothing like starting your day off getting an email from your child’s daycare letting you know that ICE has been reported in the area and what they plan to do if ICE shows up at the center. A very normal society we live in

@evolvingwild.evolving-hockey.com - noticed this peculiarity with the GAR data. I’ve never seen such a small range across a team with this sample size. Any thoughts on what might be contributing to the clustering here?

Good content on how the Wings look statistically a quarter of the way through the season from @mystaes.bsky.social substack.com/inbox/post/1...

As measured by @evolving-hockey.com's 5v5 xGF%, DET has a top-6 forward line in DeBrincat-Larkin-Raymond and a top-3 D pairing in Edvinsson-Seider

Danielson says no hard feelings setting up Finnie for that beautiful PP goal

HOLY SHIT DANIELSON

Nate Dan!

did i mention that lucas raymond is a superstar

That’s Simon Edvinsson’s 14th minor penalty this season, 2nd most amongst defensemen this season. He’s gotta cut down his PIM even though that’s a more justifiable one responding to the hit on Appleton

Huge bounceback game from the Wings. They largely controlled the play from start to finish. Would’ve liked to see them capitalize on a few more of their chances but Quick was excellent until he went full diaper at the end

That was spectacular from Lucas Raymond

Right now 35.2% of Detroit’s goals this year are from Larkin or DeBrincat. The Wings have to get someone else going.

Two risky plays from Mo and the game went from 4-2 to 4-4. Just can’t make those mistakes

They’ll let just anybody on the ice nowadays @wingedwheelpodcast.com

Have all the coaches in the Pacific Division simply agreed to take every close game to overtime? (Noting that there have only been 16 Pacific Division matchups this year)

One interesting note from the Wings broadcast Mike Kelly noted that SportLogiq has the Wings at 3rd in expected goals for this season. That’d be a huge discrepancy between the public models where the Wings are around 20th.

Wings win and i’ll see yall at LCA for @wingedwheelpodcast.com night on Saturday before the Wings-Sabres 🫡🫡🫡

the detroit red wings are just putting on a show to prep us for @wingedwheelpodcast.com night on Saturday

Really good to see the power play back on track

I’m sorry but where has that been for SEVEN YEARS MICHAEL RASMUSSEN

I'm happy to announce that I have added NHL Edge Team Reports to Puckalytics including NHL Edge Skating, Shot Speed and Zone Time reports. I'll also be adding this data to TheStanleyCap.com Team Pages in the coming days. puckalytics.com/reports/team...
