Will the Wings make a trade?

The Detroit Red Wings are surging at the right time — and the stakes are rising fast. On this episode of Red Alert, Joe Chapp and Cindy Berry break down Detroit's recent run, the growing signs of real consistency, and why this stretch before the Olympic break could define the season. We dive into the Wings' playoff odds, five-on-five concerns, and what still needs to improve despite their offensive momentum. Then the focus shifts to the trade deadline and Steve Yzerman. Is Detroit truly one move away? We discuss the difference between tinkering vs. overhauling, what type of player actually fits the Wings' long-term vision, and why rentals don't make sense for this roster. From center depth to two-way forwards, we lay out what Yzerman is likely targeting — and what he won't sacrifice. We close with a powerful reflection on Sergei Fedorov as his iconic No. 91 rises to the rafters. From his impact on championships to the cultural weight of the Winged Wheel, we discuss why honoring Fedorov now mattered — and what his legacy means for today's locker room. This is a must-listen episode for Red Wings fans tracking the playoff push, the trade deadline, and the history that still shapes Hockeytown today.

Wings fans don't have faith.

This Detroit Red Wings podcast recaps Monday's 4-2 win over Ottawa, a game Detroit stole despite being outplayed. Also, Detroit Red Wings news and analysis on Nate Danielson's assignment to Grand Rapids, plus early NHL trade deadline rumblings. The Red Wings escaped Ottawa with two crucial Atlantic Division points thanks to John Gibson's stellar 34-save performance and opportunistic scoring from Andrew Copp, Dylan Larkin, James van Riemsdyk, and Lucas Raymond's sick goal. While Detroit looked disjointed with their new line combinations, they capitalized when it mattered most against Ottawa's struggling goaltending. Gibson continues proving he can steal games even when the team doesn't play well in front of him, answering questions about his ability to perform under pressure. Copp's breakaway goal showcased his remarkable turnaround from early season struggles, while JVR continued to excel, his veteran presence in front of the net set up Larkin's 22nd goal of the season on a beautiful power play sequence. RED WINGS BEAT SENATORS (4:45) Detroit wins ugly but wins nonetheless, outshot 37-21 but getting stellar goaltending from John Gibson and timely scoring.

Detroit, and Michigan, sports are going through a tough time right now, and unfortunately the Detroit Red Wings are at the center of that.

Compher, poor play and turnovers after a Gibson save from Simon Edvinsson & Moritz Seider, Johansson and Bernard-Docker getting beat on defense, and more in a frustrating game for Todd McLellan's squad (3:40). Next, Detroit's shootout loss to Jeremy Swayman and the Boston Bruins, including Kastelic's mismatch fight where Moritz Seider got dropped, our thoughts on the response from Ben Chiarot but not too many other Red Wings, Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, Patrick Kane, and others contributing offensively, & Detroit being too slow to pick things up in the loss (12:10).

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).
