"We really need to get better in every area."

My latest for #THW ranks Detroit's offseason priorities and explores which players Steve Yzerman could target via free agency or trade. #LGRW https://t.co/yzFBpKvCrH

NEW for #THW – The Red Wings have some organizational gaps to fill, and right defense is one of the top priorities. With that in mind, allow me to introduce the next Jake Walman. #LGRW https://t.co/WndzQTKS09

Remember Mirco Mueller? You should. He sparked a massive trade tree that's still paying major dividends to the Red Wings a decade later. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/MdcBsUjRvI

[Tony Wolak @TonyWolak]

The Red Wings and Oilers face off tonight. They could also partner up for a trade deadline deal given their aligning interests. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/EIR8l6syRY

Robby Fabbri is back. Tyler Bertuzzi and Filip Zadina will return soon as well. Detroit’s lineup stands to evolve over the next few weeks as these players get up to speed. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/Opymgzoe53

[Tony Wolak @TonyWolak]

Vrana and Fabbri are due back this week. Bertuzzi and Zadina the week after. My latest covers what we can expect from these players once they’re back in the lineup. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/D13GuLTYaV

NEW for @TheHockeyWriter – I looked at data from past playoff teams to determine if the 2022-23 Red Wings are contenders or pretenders. #THW #LGRW  https://t.co/UZO7ikIOiT

Alex Nedeljkovic’s game has been off this season, and I wanted to figure out why.

I can’t believe this needs to be said, but it needs to be said.

The Red Wings *should not* trade Dylan Larkin.

#LGRW https://t.co/De8ijubz5q

[Tony Wolak @TonyWolak]

To quote @TheYzerPlan, "Trade incoming?"

I think so. The Red Wings have an abundance of depth and not enough jobs for everyone. Something has to give. https://t.co/0AF0LmXeKL

Detroit’s 2022-23 roster is mostly set. Here’s what their salary cap picture looks like after an active offseason. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/SWWbABRSYj

[Tony Wolak @TonyWolak]

The Red Wings want to improve this season. But how do you quantify that? Here’s my analysis of what constitutes success in Hockeytown. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/Z7qNhBQwIY

[Tony Wolak @TonyWolak]

Tyler Bertuzzi also needs a contract extension. Here’s what I’m expecting based on my model’s output. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/5y6BpyNXP4

[Tony Wolak @TonyWolak]

NEW for ⁦@TheHockeyWriter⁩ – I built a contract projection model during my sleepless nights with Baby Boy W. Here’s what I’m expecting for Dylan Larkin’s contract extension. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/WhEah5KTtm

[Tony Wolak @TonyWolak]

Hot(?) take: Pavel Datsyuk was Patrice Bergeron before Patrice Bergeron was a thing. Still the best Selke + offense combo to date imo 👀

[Tony Wolak @TonyWolak]

Armed with a war chest of cap space, Steve Yzerman and the Red Wings could be big spenders when free agent szn kicks off Wednesday at noon. #THW #LGRW https://t.co/jm1YnZb0D4
