The Hockey News’s Jason Chen ranks the Red Wings respectably (surprisingly?) high in his first set of power rankings for the 2024-2025 season:
18. Detroit Red Wings (41-32-9, +4)
Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider are both re-signed, so that’s a big sigh of relief. The Wings need to capitalize on last season’s momentum. I really don’t know if their goaltending will save them, as Alex Lyon did last season, or completely tank their season. It feels like there’s no in-between.
Continued; I’m guessing that there will be an in-between scenario, but that’s just me.
