Thee Official 2025-2026 Detroit Red Wings Thread: It was the worst of times, it's now the best of times

Now ASP takes a dumb penalty

Appleton draws a holding call on McAvoy after the puck died in the trapezoid

Kastelic gets the EN goal

Earlier in the game he got hit by a D and went back by him and did a fake hit in an attempt to make him flinch. Embarrassing shit.

Wings get the Sharks tonight. SJ played last night and had to travel, the Detroit special. As of Thursday, six of the Broons' last ten games were against teams on the tail end of a back to back. Would be nice! Celebrini will probably have three points.

Gustafsson got called up. Wouldn't be surprised if ASP gets a night off, he's been having a tough go of it lately. My other theory is that Gustafsson could be a body going back in a Rasmus Anderson trade. I don't think Gustafsson is any good and I
don't want to see him, but that's my guess.

Larkin's been terrible at 5 on 5 in the last 20 games or so. I don't know if having Finnie and Kasper as his linemates is going to get him going.

Ferraro goes for a high stick on AlJo

Larkin and Compher switched wingers

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Raymond made a great play to freeze Askarov and DeBrincat had the entire net to shoot at

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Big save on Colin Graf by Gibson

[Grand Moff Larkin]

A Celebrini shot popped up over Gibson, was dying on the line, but Will Smith got there first and tapped it in

[Grand Moff Larkin]

DeBrincat hits the post, that line is still the most dangerous

The Sharks young guys have gotten some fortunate bounces but they’ve also been ready to go with them

[Grand Moff Larkin]

The Sharks do not appreciate the fact I’ve had a long, trying day

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Wings tied it on a nice pass from Kasper to Compher on the rush

Detroit has been able to hem SJ in the zone a bunch, but SJ gets chances out of nowhere in transition

[Grand Moff Larkin]

AlJo just had a rush that looked like Paul Coffey, drew a hooking penalty

[Grand Moff Larkin]

This PP has been dogshit but they have 20 seconds left for the third

[Grand Moff Larkin]

AlJo up with Chiarot for the third

Curious if ASP gets any shifts in the third

[Grand Moff Larkin]

There’s one, at least

Sharks continue to threaten in transition, need to slow them down into the zone

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Did that cross the line?

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Sure looks like it

[Grand Moff Larkin]

A five on five goal for Larkin!

[Grand Moff Larkin]

ASP lost an edge and Chiarot saved his bacon with a pass block
