Red Wings Rant — Episode Narrative (Nov 19) “20 Games In: First Place… and Still Flawed?” The Detroit Red Wings reached the 20-game mark in first place in the Atlantic Division — a sentence that would've sounded insane seven days ago, when this team was stuck in the mud, blowing leads, and wrestling with its identity. And the wildest part? Both versions of the Red Wings — the playoff version, and the meltdown version — showed up this week. Last Week: A Test of Consistency We said: If the Wings could take advantage of a soft stretch — Ducks, Sabres, Rangers, Kraken — they could claw back into a strong position. One week later? They did exactly that. They handled Anaheim, threw away a 4–1 lead vs Buffalo but still got a point, gutted out a win at MSG, and closed out the Kraken with a mature, structured third period — something they haven't done most of the season. That's growth. That's progress. But the path to get here still tells us a lot about the team. Game Management: The New Buzzword That Actually Matters Todd McLellan has hammered this theme all year: “Until this group figures out what's important at certain times, we're going to have those nights.” Against Buffalo? Total collapse. Against New York and Seattle? Finally, the shutdown hockey he's been begging for. The Seattle third period wasn't flashy — five shots allowed, perfect breakouts, clean faceoffs, pucks deep, smart changes. It was the most professional 20 minutes this team has played this season. This is what real playoff teams do. But the challenge now is: Can it be repeated? Stars Are Driving the Bus Larkin, DeBrincat, and Raymond are all pacing career-level seasons: Larkin: 600 points + scoring at a star level Cat: Tenacious, complete, and reliable no matter the line Raymond: Finally looking healthy — nine points in his last four And Moritz Seider is quietly playing elite two-way hockey despite a few headline-grabbing mistakes. The Rookies: High Impact, High Volatility The 2023 class stole the show early, then went quiet… …and came roaring back against Seattle: Danielson's first NHL goal Nearly another (called back) Finnie's power-play goal after Danielson set him up ASP steadying after a rough stretch These three have brought energy AND mistakes — but the energy has clearly returned to the lineup. Goaltending: The Split Is Clear Cam Talbot: +1 GSAX, making the saves Detroit needs Steady, calm, veteran presence John Gibson: 11th-worst GSAX, sub-.875 save percentage High-danger rebounds, bad-angle goals, and collapsing confidence around him Detroit's Jekyll-and-Hyde identity? It's not just game management. It's also which goalie is in the net. 20-Game Snapshot: The Good and The Questions What's working: Stars producing PK massively improved Rookies making real contributions Defensive improvements in structure Third-period closure vs Seattle In playoff position despite flaws 1st place in the division at the quarter-mark What still needs answers: Will this team ever find consistent scoring from the middle six? Can Gibson turn it around? Can they avoid the rookie wall? Will they protect leads consistently? Can they replicate the Seattle third period against real contenders? This is a good team. It might even be a playoff team. But the story for the next 62 games is simple: Are the Red Wings learning how to win? Or surviving despite themselves? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Tune in as we open by discussing the loss in which J.T. Compher & Emmitt Finnie (from Dylan Larkin) scored while the rest of the Detroit Red Wings didn't do much else, as the absence of Patrick Kane and Lucas Raymond being injured disrupted the forward group, John Gibson didn't stand out, the penalties and errors from the best players in Edvinsson and Seider down to the bottom of the lineup in Rasmussen and Berggren all led to a loss to Colten Ellis, a rookie goalie making his NHL debut (4:15). We then discuss Todd McLellan's difficult spot with the forwards, as two key injuries means a lack of solid lines to utilize, how the depth players aren't seizing their opportunities, DeBrincat and Brandsegg-Nygard aren't offering scoring firepower, and what Steve Yzerman can do to help fix the issue (14:25). After that, Dylan Larkin's impressive start to the season (alongside Emmitt Finnie) & if it's a sign of new heights (30:15), Carter Mazur's hot start and Nate Danielson's path back (33:30), more on the Gustafsson, Holl, Hamonic trade rumors and what Steve Yzerman may do there (36:10), Max Plante's dominance in the NCAA (37:55), whether Michael Brandsegg-Nygard could benefit from joining Carter Mazer, Amadeus Lombardi, and soon Nate Danielson with the Grand Rapids Griffins in the AHL, or if he's better to stick it out in Hockeytown (39:35), and what to make of Alex DeBrincat's goalless streak to start the season (44:30).

Hi everybody, and welcome to Red Wings Rant: Where tirades and impassioned pleas about your Detroit Red Wings finally have a home. Matt and Mike are back from Little Caesars Arena — and the Detroit Red Wings are officially on a roll. After taking down the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers 4-1, the Wings have now strung together three straight wins to move to 3-1-0. The guys break down what it was like inside the arena, who passed the eyeball test (spoiler: Axel Sandin-Pellikka looked like a seasoned pro), and how Todd McLellan's influence is already showing up in the details. We'll talk about Mason Appleton's incredible two-goal night, Dylan Larkin's quietly dominant start, and how Patrick Kane and Alex DeBrincat keep piling on the points. Plus, we'll spotlight Detroit's penalty kill — now sitting near 90% — looking heavier, smarter, and more responsible than it's been in years. Finally, we'll look ahead to the next test: Tampa Bay, Edmonton, and Buffalo. Are the Red Wings for real, or is this just an early-season flash? Matt and Mike break it all down from rinkside.

The Detroit Red Wings are turning heads early in the season — and hosts Joe Chapp and Cindy Berry break down exactly why. From Todd McLellan's fiery post-game comments and the culture change taking hold in Detroit, to the emergence of Emmitt Finney, Lucas Raymond's injury scare, and the surprising power-play success — this episode of Red Alert Podcast dives deep into what's finally clicking for the Wings.

Next, we're joined by Prashanth Iyer to discuss Steve Yzerman's options for the Hockeytown team this offseason, Todd McLellan's impact & their underlying numbers, whether bringing back Patrick Kane, adding Mitch Marner, Gavrikov, or other free agents would be a boost, and how far away they are from the Wild Card playoff spots (15:00).

The Detroit Red Wings are officially out of playoff contention for the 9th straight season. Tune in as we discuss the postseason drought in Hockeytown, reactions to another year of disappointment as Todd McLellan, Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, Moritz Seider, and Steve Yzerman continue to look for answers and what those may be (defenseman so Simon Edvinsson can move up? Forward to help the top 6?) (4:20). After a quick overview of the Red Wings' most recent games (including Alex DeBrincat, Patrick Kane, Marco Kasper, and other producing), we discuss the Detroit Red Wings NHL Draft Lottery standings, as well as whether Marco Kasper can be Hockeytown's 2nd line center of the future behind Dylan Larkin (and potentially alongside Nate Danielson) (21:30). After that, we take a look at Axel Sandin Pellikka and Michael Brandsegg-Nygard making their way to Michigan from Sweden as they'll join Sebastian Cossa, Amadeus Lombardi, Emmitt Finnie, Anton Johansson, and the Grand Rapids Griffins as they gear up for a Calder Cup Playoff run in the AHL (34:50).
