Lucas Raymond Tries To Extend Point Streak Against USA

Detroit Red Wings winger Lucas Raymond has started the 4 Nations Face-Off strong for Sweden and aims to stay productive in Monday's clash against Team USA. Raymond has recorded three assists through the tournament's first two games, doing all his scoring during even-strength play. However, he hasn't found success in front of the net, coming up empty-handed with five attempts on goal. Combined with his time with the Red Wings, Raymond is on a five-game point streak. The 22-year-old is on track for a career year in the NHL this season, boasting 21 goals and 59 points with 55 games played.

Lucas Raymond Tallies Two Helpers In Overtime Loss

Detroit Red Wings right wing Lucas Raymond tallied two assists in his overtime loss to Team Canada on Wednesday evening. In the second frame, Raymond tallied his first assist, which was the secondary helper on Jonas Brodin's goal. Later in the third period, Raymond would add his second secondary assist to set up Minnesota's Joel Eriksson Ek on the game-tying goal. He was also named the third star of the contest and logged three total shots on goal. Despite playing on Team Sweden's third line, Raymond was very productive in this contest. Fantasy managers in DFS formats should consider putting Raymond in their lineup on Saturday when they face Team Finland. Before the tournament, the 22-year-old had tallied 17 points over his previous 15 games with Detroit.

J.T. Compher On Track To Return To Action Saturday

Detroit Red Wings forward J.T. Compher (upper body) is expected to rejoin the action on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Compher has missed five games with an upper-body injury. The versatile forward skated on the fourth line and worked with the second power-play unit during Friday's practice. Compher's last appearance also came against the Lightning, where he dished out an assist in a 2-0 win on Jan. 25. He has tallied 21 points (six goals, 15 assists) in 48 games across the campaign. Since the turn of the year, Compher has amassed only two points in 12 appearances, making him an unattractive fantasy piece.

Alex Lyon Facing Tampa Bay On Saturday

According to Daniella Bruce, Detroit Red Wings goaltender Alex Lyon will get the starting nod on Saturday afternoon against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Lyon and Cam Talbot have alternated starts over the past two weeks and will follow suit on Saturday afternoon. Over his last two outings, Lyon picked up two victories with a .946 percent SV and a 1.86 GAA. Over his previous five outings before this winning streak, Lyon held a similar .911 percent SV with a 2.41 GAA. Overall, Lyon holds a 10-6-1 record across 21 outings this season. However, Lyon has a tougher matchup on Saturday afternoon as the Lightning have scored nine goals over their previous two contests. He is a high-risk play in DFS that is best to fade on Saturday's large slate of games.

Alex DeBrincat Leads The Way On Sunday

Detroit Red Wings left wing Alex DeBrincat tallied two goals, including the game-winner, to power the Red Wings over the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday evening. DeBrincat would score his first in the opening frame on a wrist shot which beat Vancouver netminder Kevin Lankinen. Then, in overtime, DeBrincat would strike again to extend Detroit's winning streak to six games. DeBrincat has found the back of the net four times during this winning streak and added one helper. He has averaged 3.33 shots on goal with a +4 rating. Overall, DeBrincat has scored 23 goals with 19 assists. He is on pace to surpass his last season's goal total of 27. Fantasy managers should continue to expect DeBrincat to play in the Detroit top six and have a role on the top power-play. The Wings will look for this seventh-straight win on Tuesday evening against the Seattle Kraken.

Patrick Kane Returns To Action Sunday

Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane (upper body) is ready to rejoin the lineup on Sunday against the Vancouver Canucks. The team has activated Kane from Injured Reserve. The former MVP is good to go after missing five games due to an upper-body injury. Kane has notched 30 points (11 goals, 19 assists) in 42 appearances this season. It's been a tough year for him, but Kane was hot before he got sidelined. The veteran star has recorded six goals and 16 points over his past 12 appearances. Kane's return will bump Vladimir Tarasenko back to the third line.

Patrick Kane Not Expected To Play On Thursday

According to Ansar Khan of MLive.com, Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane (upper body) is not expected to return to action on Thursday against the Edmonton Oilers. Kane has missed the past three contests and is now expected to miss his fourth straight contest. Kane sustained this injury following their contest against the Philadelphia Flyers on January 21. However, the Red Wings are expected to welcome back left wing Vladimir Tarasenko (illness) to the starting lineup on Thursday evening. Before the injury, Kane was enjoying a nice offensive surge as he tallied 16 points (six goals, 10 helpers) over his previous 12 contests. During this stretch, the 36-year-old tallied 10 of his points on the power-play while averaging 2.4 shots on goal per game.

Vladimir Tarasenko Remains Sidelined During Tuesday's Practice

According to Helene St. James, Detroit Red Wings right wing Vladimir Tarasenko (illness) remained sidelined during Tuesday's practice. The 33-year-old could not play on Monday evening against the Anaheim Ducks and could be in danger of missing their next contest on Thursday evening against the Edmonton Oilers. If Tarasenko were to remain sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Dominik Shine to continue to draw into the starting lineup. Across 48 contests this season, Tarasenko has found the back of the net six times and added 14 helpers. Over his previous eight contests, Tarasenko has tallied six points (two goals, four helpers) with 15 shots on goal and 10 hits.

Lucas Raymond Leads The Way On Monday

Detroit Red Wings right wing Lucas Raymond tallied four points during their victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Monday evening. In the opening frame, Raymond found the back of the net on a backhand shot. Raymond tallied his second point in the second frame, a helper on Alex DeBrincat's power-play tally. In the third, Raymond would add two more helpers. Since the start of the month (13 games), Raymond has tallied 18 points (five goals, 13 helpers,) with eight of them coming on the power-play. Overall, the former No.4 overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft has tallied 56 points through 50 contests. Fantasy managers should continue to view him as a must-start option, as he is on pace to set a career-high in points. He will look to stay hot on Thursday evening against the Edmonton Oilers.

Vladimir Tarasenko A Game-Time Decision Monday

Detroit Red Wings winger Vladimir Tarasenko (illness) is a game-time decision for Monday's tilt against the Los Angeles Kings. He is battling to recover from an illness in time for the puck drop. Tarasenko has not had a good time in Motown, recording 20 points (six goals, 14 assists) in 48 games. With Patrick Kane (upper body) remaining out on Monday, Jonatan Berggren might join the top-six group. The Swedish winger has registered 13 points (eight goals, five assists) across 47 outings in 2024-25. He is not a reliable fantasy option.

J.T. Compher Will Not Play On Monday

Detroit Red Wings forward J.T. Compher (undisclosed) will not hit the ice on Monday against the Los Angeles Kings. The 29-year-old is considered day-to-day with an undisclosed injury. Tyler Motte (upper body) is set to take Compher's spot in the lineup. Motte is available for selection after missing six games due to an upper-body injury. Detroit loses skill but gains muscle with the change, as Motte has recorded 35 hits in 28 games this campaign. Offensively, he has been very quiet, contributing only two goals and two assists.

Cam Talbot  • G  •  Red Wings

Cam Talbot Leads The Way On Saturday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Cam Talbot stopped all 28 shots he faced in his shutout victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday. The Lightning dominated the shot total in the final frame, but Talbot was able to keep the door shut to seal the victory. After a disappointing start to the season, the 37-year-old has begun to turn the corner. Over his previous eight contests, Talbot has posted a 7-1 record with a solid .906% SV and a 2.72 GAA. During this eight-game stretch, he allowed two goals or less in five of these starts. Overall, Talbot carries a 13-10-2 record with a. 906% SV and a 2.90 GAA. Talbot will look to continue this impressive stretch on Tuesday evening, facing his former team, the Los Angeles Kings.

Patrick Kane Not Ready To Return

Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane (upper body) won't play on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Kane also missed Thursday's game, but head coach Todd McLellan said that Kane remains day-to-day. It is unfortunate timing for the 36-year-old, who had been on a heater recently, scoring 16 points in his last 13 games. Vladimir Tarasenko saw more powerplay time on Thursday, and should remain in that spot while Kane recovers. He makes for a decent add in fantasy.

Moritz Seider Tallies Two Helpers In Victory

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Moritz Seider tallied two helpers during their victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday evening. Seider tallied the secondary assist on Alex DeBrincat's 20th goal of the season in the opening frame. Later in the second, Seider would add another secondary assist, this time on the power-play on Dylan Larkin's tally. The 23-year-old also logged three hits, two blocked shots, and two penalty minutes in this contest. Over his previous seven games, Seider has tallied six helpers while averaging 4.2 hits per game, 1.5 blocks per game, and 2.8 shots on goal per game. Five of those helpers came on the power-play. Seider remains a must-start defenseman in all formats, given his ability to contribute to several categories at a high level.

Patrick Kane Ruled Out For Thursday

Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane (upper body) will miss Thursday's Original Six matchup against the Montreal Canadiens. The 2016 Hart Trophy winner will miss at least one game due to an upper-body injury. He is considered day-to-day. Kane recently turned back the clock, racking up six goals and 16 points over a 10-game span. He has amassed 30 points (11 goals, 19 assists) in 42 games across the season. With Kane out, Vladimir Tarasenko will move to the second line for Thursday's action. The Russian forward is not a recommended fantasy target, as he's having a disappointing campaign in Detroit, logging 19 points (nine goals, 10 assists) in 46 outings.

Dylan Larkin Scores Twice On Thursday

Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin scored twice and tallied an assist during their victory over the Florida Panthers on Thursday evening. Larkin would score his first goal on the power-play in the second period on a tip-in. Later in the frame, Larkin would tack on the primary assist on Marco Kasper's fifth goal of the season. In the final minutes, Larkin would score the empty-netter to put the game out of reach. This performance extended the 28-year-old's point streak to three games. Over his past ten, Larkin has only been held off the scoresheet once and tallied an impressive 15 points (eight goals, seven helpers). During this stretch, he averaged a solid 3.8 shots on goal per game. He remains a must-start player as he looks to stay on Saturday night against the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Dylan Larkin Tallies Goal, Assist On Sunday

Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin tallied a goal and an assist during Sunday's victory over the Seattle Kraken. Larkin tallied the primary assist on Marco Kasper's fourth goal of the season in the opening frame. Later in the second, Larkin would score on the power-play on a snap shot. This was Larkin's fourth multi-point outing in his previous five games. Larkin has only been held off the scoresheet once over his previous eight contests. During this span, Larkin has tallied 11 points (six goals, five helpers), seven of which came on the power-play. During this stretch, Larkin has averaged 4.25 shots on goal per game while seeing top minutes in the Detroit offense. The 28-year-old remains a must-start player in all formats while he continues this productive stretch.

Patrick Kane Dishes Out Three Helpers On Friday

Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane tallied three assists during their victory on Friday evening against the Chicago Blackhawks. Kane tallied one of his assists on the power play and the other two in 5-on-5 play. He also held a +1 rating and tallied a blocked shot in this contest. This three-point performance extended his point streak to six games. Over this stretch, the 36-year-old has posted four multi-point games and tallied a total of 11 points. Before this hot stretch, Kane tallied just four points (two goals, two assists) over his previous ten contests. Given his current play, Kane should remain locked into all fantasy lineups and viewed as a great play in DFS as he looks to extend his scoring streak to seven games on Sunday afternoon against the Seattle Kraken.

Alex Lyon Unavailable Friday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Alex Lyon (upper body) will not be in the lineup on Friday against Chicago. He sustained an upper-body injury in Tuesday's matchup against Ottawa. Cam Talbot replaced Lyon in the second period on Tuesday and will log his 20th start of the campaign against the Blackhawks. The 2024-25 season has been a tricky campaign for Talbot, who owns an 8-9-2 record. He has recorded one shutout with a 3.03 goals-against average and a .903 save percentage. The veteran netminder will hope to register his third consecutive win on Friday, a feat he hasn't accomplished since March of last year.

Jeff Petry Placed On Injured Reserve

According to the team, the Detroit Red Wings placed defenseman Jeff Petry (undisclosed) on Injured Reserve, retroactive to Jan. 2. The 37-year-old sustained this injury on Jan. 2 during their game against the Columbus Blue Jackets and will not be eligible to return until Friday. However, seeing him placed on Injured Reserve now suggests that he may have a longer recovery window. Through 34 games this season, Petry has scored one goal and tallied five helpers. He has logged 39 hits with 56 blocked shots. While sidelined, Albert Johansson will continue to draw starts.
