DETROIT – The Detroit Red Wings came as close as you can get to making the playoffs without getting in, and Dylan Larkin hopes the disappointment drives them in the offseason. “This stings,” Larkin said. “The momentum we built, for the guys returning hopefully there's a hunger there all summer and a little bit of anger and hurt from what we just went through. I know it will be for me.” Larkin, speaking Thursday as players gathered one last time for exit interviews, described the season as a mix of emotions – from the high of building an eight-point lead in the wild card chase at the end of February to the frustrations of a March swoon to the gut-wrenching final day Tuesday, when a dramatic 5-4

The expectation for the Detroit Red Wings was to at least remain in the playoff race well past the trade deadline and play meaningful games near the end. The Red Wings, despite a 5-4 shootout victory, were eliminated on the final day of their season. “To have the last month, last two weeks that we've had … we just wouldn't go away,” Dylan Larkin told media in Montreal. Lalonde said there were a lot of positives in his second season.

The Detroit Red Wings were pleased by how young defenseman Simon Edvinsson handled playing in pressure-packed games during a playoff run that fell just short. The 6-6 former No. 6 pick will get an opportunity to play more important games with the Grand Rapids Griffins in the AHL playoffs after being reassigned on Wednesday, along with veteran forward Zach Aston-Reese. Edvinsson, 21, appeared in 14 games after being recalled on March 19. “His play has been a huge bright spot in this stretch,” coach Derek Lalonde said on Monday.

The Grand Rapids Griffins are playoff bound for the first time in five years. With the end of their season just under a week away, the Griffins are *five* points away from clinching home ice in their opening matchup, which will be against the Rockford IceHogs, the American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the Chicago Blackhawks. Things are looking good for the Detroit Red Wings' AHL affiliate. Not only are the Griffins close to clinching second place in the AHL's Central Division, but they have continued to roll even while key players such as Simon Edvinsson and Austin Czarnik have spent time in Detroit following the NHL's trade deadline.

Prior to the 2023-24 season, Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman set expectations for his team. “It's not playoffs or bust, but we're going to try to win every game and we're going to try to make the playoffs,” Yzerman noted to the media. With two games to go, Yzerman's goal of reaching the playoffs is still a possibility. Detroit needs to win, and they need a little help from Eastern Conference rivals, but a postseason berth is still possible.

The Toronto Maple Leafs took on the Detroit Red Wings Saturday night in what could have been the biggest game of the year for the Red Wings.

This led to the game's first goal on the power play, scored by Mitch Marner.

Lucas Raymond is in his third NHL season, so it's not like this was a debut or he reintroduced himself to the rest of the league. Red Wings opponents have had to account for Raymond's presence almost since he stepped foot on the ice as a rookie. In the biggest game of the Wings' season to date — and likely the most important NHL game Raymond has ever played in — he scored three goals (his second career hat trick) and set up captain Dylan Larkin for a goal, tying his career best with a four-point game.
