2025-26 Detroit Red Wings Season

Post by Bosc »

The Wings need Gibson's 2024-25 season to be a return to form for this season too, not the misery of the seasons prior on bad Ducks teams.

Rookies making the team out of camp:
Michael Brandsegg-Nygård, 15th overall pick in 2024.
Emmitt Finnie, 2023, 201st overall 7th rounder! from 2023
and the highly touted and decorated Axel Sandin-Pellikka, 17th overall pick from 2023

ASP has already has a very impressive resume, winning Swedish Defenseman of the Year as an 18-year old.

Gibson and the Wings as a whole looked rough last night.

Wings outshoot the Leafs, come back from 2-0 deficit and win.

Leafs badly outshoot the Wings, Talbot pulls one out 3-2.

Win against the Panthers 4-1.

3-1 to start the season against division teams that finished higher last year. I definitely would not be looking for this goalie tandem to carry them to a playoff spot, that's for sure.

Sens and Cats lost their Tkachuks, so like the Habs I think the Wings have a shot to pad a little lead in the Atlantic race.

Of all the throwbacks/fauxbacks the Red Wings have come out with, this is by far their best one.

Wings beat the Lightning in OT and hold McDavid and Drai to 3 total shots in a 4-2 win. Gibson with both victories, which is definitely promising. Wings on a 5-game win streak after the awful 1st game against Montreal.

Larkin's first goal was a beauty.

Finnie with his first two goals and 5 points on the season. Larkin leading the way with 5-6-11 through 6 games.

They are really nice. So many nods to older uniforms.

I dig 'em too.
Posting your political views on social media is like sticking your head up your ass & whispering: You're just as likely to change someone's mind, and you'll always come out looking like a shithead.

Got absolutely killed by the Isles, turn a 4-0 deficit into a 6-4 win against the Blues, then hang another 4 the Blues' giant baby in a 5-2 win.

7-3 to start the season.
