Detroit Red Wings

As kids (and maybe some adults, I'm not trying to crush any dreams here) eagerly await the gifts provided by a jolly fat guy in a red-and-white suit, I thought of another group of guys in red and white who could make my Christmas especially joyous. From Dec. 14 to Dec. 25, I will mimic the pattern of the "12 Days of Christmas" song by asking for one thing on the first day, two things on the next day, and so on until Christmas. But, as this is...  

For more Chicago Blackhawks coverage, check out Tab's blog: CommittedIndians.com! I’m not sure even Robocop could have given Detroit a chance on Sunday. In the first game between hated rivals in two months, the improved Blackhawks defeated the injury-depleted Red Wings 3-0 in front of another United Center-best crowd.

Last June 12, as the Pittsburgh Penguins reveled in their first Stanley Cup win since 1992 on the Joe Louis Arena ice surface, the state of the team in mid-December, 2008 must have seemed to them like ancient history—something written in hieroglyphics on a cave wall somewhere. I caught team president Mario Lemieux before he made his way into the locker room. The Pens had made a coaching change after the new year. And I wanted to know how the...  

With just under two minutes left in the first period on Thursday night, Detroit star forward and leading scorer Henrik Zetterberg needed help to leave the ice. After a hard, but legal, hit from Mattias Ohlund, Zetterberg was taken to the dressing room with what’s being called an “upper body injury” (of course).

DETROIT -- The best part of Wednesday's Red Wings practice at Joe Louis Arena came after most of the regulars had left the ice. Johan Franzen and Niklas Kronwall — both sidelined with knee injuries — skated for the first time since leaving the lineup. So did Valtteri Filppula, whose broken wrist has him on the shelf.
