The Score posted its first set of power rankings for the 2024-2025 season, and the Red Wings land where you’d expect them to–far lower than where they finished in the standings:
22. Detroit Red Wings
Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider are locked in, but is Detroit good enough yet to end its playoff drought? A full year of Patrick Kane in the fold should help, but the Atlantic Division is a gauntlet, and we’re not too bullish on the Cam Talbot-Alex Lyon tandem in goal.
Continued; again, the Red Wings will have to battle through the media haze of poor prognostications with strong on-ice performances.
