Hi everybody and welcome to Season 3 ofRed Wings Rant: Where tirades and impassioned pleas about your Detroit Red Wings, finally, have a home.
The Detroit Red Wings got some outstanding play from their two stars, Lucas Raymond and Dylan Larkin during this weekend’s preseason matchups.
Lucas Raymond, of course, was the Red Wings 1st Round Pick, 4th overall, in the 2020 NHL Draft. Raymond is making his North American Pro Debut this season and while many anticipated a start in Grand Rapids, he certainly is making the decision difficult for the Red Wings, now that he has posted 4 points in 2 games.
Dylan Larkin, who was returning to the ice for the first time since his injury in the 2021 shortened season. While Raymond is exciting to watch, it was great to see Larkin look like he’d never missed a game while posting 2 goals and an assist against the Blue Jackets.
The Red Wings also played a stinker of a game Sunday Afternoon in Pittsburgh against the Penguins. The Red Wings lost 5-1 and did not make it look close. The Red Wings were severely out-chanced and the Red WIngs new goalie, Alex Nedeljkovic, who was brought in for a 3rd round pick, struggled too.
In major news for the Wings, Jakub Vrana is now ruled OUT for AT LEAST 4 months. Also, Tyler Bertuzzi is now being ruled out for another Red Wings preseason game. Is he going to remain with the Franchise for much longer?
