Why Steve Yzerman’s Next Bold Move Could Make or Break the Detroit Red Wings’ Future
NHL Rumors: Colorado Avalanche, Winnipeg Jets, Anaheim Ducks, and Joel Quenneville
There should be no surprise that Dylan Larkin is upset. He has not seen playoff action since the 2015-16. His rookie season was the last year the Red Wings made the playoffs. Prolonged playoff droughts, like the Buffalo Sabres at 14 years and now with the Red Wings at nine years, are not a good thing. Especially in a place like Detroit, where fans could lose interest if the team is not successful.
While winning cures all, Detroit missed the playoffs in 2024 because it did not have enough regulation wins, as they were tied with the Washington Capitals with the same number of points. Not having Larkin for a stretch of games cost the Red Wings a chance at the playoffs.
