The Red Wings’ 25-season playoff streak ended in 2017. It was the longest active streak across major professional sports at the time. Detroit is in a rebuilding phase after years of playoff contention. Veterans like Henrik Zetterberg have retired in recent seasons.
The Red Wings have missed the playoffs seven straight years since 2017, bottoming out with a historically bad 2019-20 season. Young players like Moritz Seider and Lucas Raymond offer hope for the future, but the rebuild is still ongoing under GM Steve Yzerman and new head coach Derek Lalonde.
Longtime pillars of past Red Wings teams like Pavel Datsyuk, Nicklas Lidstrom and the late Mike Ilitch are no longer with the franchise. The glory days of the late 1990s through late 2000s have given way to a youth movement.

Detroit Red Wings Betting Tips

The Red Wings are in the midst of a rebuild, having missed the playoffs seven straight seasons since their 25-year playoff streak ended in 2017. As such, they are not currently among the top contenders in the NHL. However, there are some promising young players to keep an eye on:

Winger Anthony Mantha and center Dylan Larkin are core pieces of the future, though they are still developing consistency. Expect their offensive production to continue improving.
Defense and goaltending remain areas of concern. The blue line lacks depth and talent while goaltenders have struggled with injuries and ineffectiveness in recent years. Upgrading these positions is key.
As the rebuild continues under GM Steve Yzerman, the Red Wings are likely to remain around the .500 mark in 2023. They don't hold significant home ice advantage.
Metrics like Adjusted Efficiency Margin can help assess if the Red Wings' play is showing signs of meaningful improvement. But this is a long-term project, so patience is required when considering any Detroit bets.
