Will New York Islanders Send Marty Biron to Detroit Red Wings?

I've been seeing, as of late, a lot of talk and 'rumors' about how the Wings are interested in Marty Biron of the Isles. When I first heard the rumor, I was kind of intrigued, thinking that maybe if Biron was in Hockeytown, he might do some good...

Detroit Red Wings: So, What If The Red Wings Miss The Playoffs?

"Why have you changed?" "It never used to be this way." "I miss the old you." Sound familiar? A bit like an ex-girlfriend? Hell, maybe your current girlfriend? Given the chance, these are the types of things Red Wings' fans would ask their team right now.

Struggling Red Wings Can Look To Unlikely Source for Inspiration

Sitting near the bottom of the division is certainly not where the Red Wings expected to be at this point in the season. Now is not the time to panic, however. They can look to a familiar foe for proof of that...

Ericsson Gets Injury Bug; Winged Wheels Fall On Home Ice Against Oilers

As a Red Wings fan and a writer, I am having some difficulty understanding why this Wings squad constantly "forgets" to show up to games that seem to be easy victories. Yes, yes I am aware that no games are easy in the new NHL...

Shut Out Twice in a Row at Home, Red Wings Have Nowhere to Go But Up

The Detroit Red Wings have out-shot their last two opponents 80-42 combined. They've been outscored 5-0. The last time the Wings were shut out twice in a row at home was 32 years ago. Yes, I believe this is what addicts refer to as "rock bottom...

Happy Thanksgiving..Atlanta Shuts Out Redwings In Hockeytown
