Hockeytown Rundown

The Detroit Red Wings finally put together a strong week, grabbing 5 of 6 possible points with wins over the Boston Bruins and Columbus Blue Jackets, plus a hard-fought matchup against the Seattle Kraken. After a rollercoaster stretch, the boys are starting to find some rhythm — and a big reason why is the emergence of the “Discovery Line.”

Elmer Söderblom, Marco Kasper, and Nate Danielson are cooking right now, bringing energy, speed, and play-driving every single night. Detroit might’ve stumbled into something special with this trio.

And they’re not the only ones heating up.

JVR has 5 goals in his last 6 games, turning back the clock and giving the Wings the secondary scoring they’ve been begging for.

Meanwhile, Patrick “Showtime” Kane is officially back, putting up over a point-per-game in his last five and controlling play like vintage Kane.

🔥 In this episode:

✅ Wings snag 5 of 6 points vs Bruins, Blue Jackets & Kraken

⚙️ The “Discovery Line” — Elmer, Kasper & Danielson taking off

🔥 JVR’s scoring surge: 5 goals in 6 games

✨ Patrick Kane playing at a point-per-game pace again

📈 Are the Wings finally trending in the right direction?

Let us know in the comments: Is the “Discovery Line” legit or just a hot streak?

We’re back with another loaded episode, and this time we’re joined by special guest Jake Rivard from 313Hockey to break down his latest article, “Bad Luck, or Bad Vibes?” If you’ve been feeling the rollercoaster that is the Detroit Red Wings season, this conversation hits every angle.

We dig deep into what’s actually going on with this team — from the veterans who aren’t pulling their weight, to the rookies trying to drag the Wings forward, to the goaltending situation that’s somehow both promising and concerning at the same time. And yes… we talk a LOT about Sebastian Cossa, who just came off a fantastic month of November in the AHL and is making a real case for future NHL starts.

But that’s not all — we also tackle the big, wild, blockbuster question:

What would it actually cost the Red Wings to trade for Norris-winning defenseman — and Michigan native — Quinn Hughes?

We walk through the realistic packages, the painful pieces, the cap implications, and whether this is the kind of swing Steve Yzerman should make right now.

🔥 In this episode:

✅ Breaking down Jake Rivard’s article: “Bad Luck, or Bad Vibes?”

✅ Veterans vs. rookies — who’s helping and who’s hurting?

✅ The goaltending conversation… featuring a HUGE month from Cossa

✅ Would Detroit really pursue Quinn Hughes?

✅ What a Hughes trade package might look like

✅ The path forward if the Wings want to stay in the playoff hunt

Let us know in the comments: Should the Red Wings go all-in for Quinn Hughes?

The Detroit Red Wings just wrapped up a brutal week — four games, four losses — and the panic button in Hockeytown is getting real. After falling to the Devils, Predators, Lightning, and Bruins, it’s clear this team needs help… fast. So we’re issuing a full-on PSA and SOS to Steve Yzerman: It’s time to swing big. It’s time to go after Michigan native Quinn Hughes.

Yeah, we said it.

In this episode, we dive into Detroit’s rough four-game slide, why the wheels came off, and why adding a true No. 1 defenseman could change everything. We even dig into what a realistic trade package might look like — and why the New Jersey Devils could be a sneaky third team in a blockbuster deal.

🔥 In this episode:

✅ Breaking down the four straight losses (Devils, Preds, Bolts, Bruins)

✅ Identifying the biggest problems holding Detroit back

✅ PSA + SOS to Yzerman: Make the Quinn Hughes move

✅ What a Hughes trade package could look like

✅ How the Devils factor into this potential three-team scenario

✅ Why this might be the moment for Yzerman to go all-in

Let us know in the comments: Would YOU trade for Quinn Hughes? And what would you give up?

The Detroit Red Wings are finding ways to win, but how consistent can they sustain that with two storylines that are jumping to the front of the conversation?

John Gibson’s shaky start in Detroit and Marco Kasper battling a real sophomore slump. Gibson has had some tough outings lately, leaving fans wondering if the Wings can trust him long-term, while Kasper has gone quiet and being sent down to the 4th line. Raising questions about his confidence, usage, and role moving forward.

In this episode, we break down what’s going wrong with Gibson, why Kasper’s production has stalled, and how both issues tie into the Wings' recent stretch of games. From the Rangers Centennial matchup to Seattle, the Islanders, and Columbus, it’s been a rollercoaster of inconsistency, blown opportunities, and flashes of what this team could be if they find their game again.

🔥 In this episode:

✅ What’s behind John Gibson’s rough stretch in goal

✅ Marco Kasper’s sophomore slump

✅ Breaking down the Rangers Centennial matchup

✅ Seattle, Islanders, and Blue Jackets: what went right and wrong

✅ The early-season rollercoaster and what Detroit must fix ASAP

Let us know in the comments: Are you more worried about Gibson's struggles… or Kasper going invisible?

The Detroit Red Wings top line is scoring… but the bottom six is snoring their way through November.

When guys like Larkin, Raymond, and Alex DeBrincat show up, the Wings can hang with anybody. But the second they go quiet? This team suddenly can’t buy a goal. And that’s the problem — depth scoring is basically nonexistent right now.

In this episode, we break down how the lack of production from the bottom six is holding the Wings back and why it’s becoming a bigger issue than people realize.

With players like Jonatan Berggren, Elmer Söderblom, and even JVR rotating in and out as the “12th forward,” the question becomes: Who actually deserves that spot for the rest of the season? And more importantly… who can help this team win?

🔥 In this episode:

✅ Top line carrying the entire offense

✅ Bottom-six struggles and why it’s hurting the Wings

✅ Should Bergy, Soda, or JVR lock down that final forward spot?

✅ What Todd McLellan can do to spark secondary scoring

Let us know in the comments: Who should own that 12th forward spot — Berggren, Söderblom, JVR, or someone else entirely?
