DETROIT – The Detroit Red Wings hadn’t won in 17 days and were trending in the wrong direction with back-to-back home losses following an extended layoff. The Red Wings did a lot of things right and many players stepped up in a 6-2 victory Tuesday over the San Jose Sharks at Little Caesars Arena. “I definitely saw a sense of urgency from our team,” Red Wings coach Jeff Blashill said. We competed from a physical standpoint.”After scoring only one goal in each of the past two games, the Red Wings (16-15-3) equaled their season-high total. “(Michael Rasmussen) played a really good game, as good a game as he’s played in a while,” Blashill said.

The Red Wings (16-15-3) stopped a two-game skid during which they scored only two goals. The Red Wings did an excellent job on the penalty kill, even going on the offensive.

DETROIT – The momentum the Detroit Red Wings gained the past few weeks came to a sudden stop with a physical pounding from Nashville on Tuesday. “I was disappointed in the game (Tuesday) because we had a chance to keep that momentum at home,” Red Wings coach Jeff Blashill said.

Pius Suter and Tyler Bertuzzi each had a goal and an assist, and the Detroit Red Wings beat the Vegas Golden Knights 5-2.

DETROIT – The Detroit Red Wings’ power play was productive, their penalty kill perfect, their goaltending good, their depth of scoring dangerous, and their captain was back. In perhaps their most complete game of the season Sunday, the Red Wings defeated the Vegas Golden Knights 5-2 at Little Caesars Arena, winning back-to-back games on the weekend after losing four in a row. Pius Suter and Tyler Bertuzzi each picked up a goal and an assist as 10 Red Wings registered points. The Red Wings scored multiple power-play goals for the first time this season, both in the first period, when they led 3-1 despite registering only seven shots on Brossoit.

The Detroit Red Wings’ first extended road trip of the season was on the verge of being a complete disaster until Tyler Bertuzzi spearheaded a comeback and Moritz Seider sealed the deal. Seider’s first career goal enabled the Red Wings (5-5-2) to end a four-game slide (0-3-1) in their third consecutive game without captain Dylan Larkin, who is away from the team for personal reasons. Suter is the third player the Red Wings have had centering the top line in Larkin’s absence and his line provided an immediate boost. The Red Wings started strong and had two other glorious opportunities on one-timers from Filip Zadina and Robby Fabbri that Tokarski was quick to move side-to-side to deny. The Sabres took a 3-1 lead at 6:08 of the third period when Arttu Ruotsolainen banged in the rebound of Colin Miller’s shot.

The Detroit Red Wings continue searching for a solution for their top-line center spot in Dylan Larkin’s absence. Coach Jeff Blashill said there was no update on Larkin, who has missed two games due to an unspecified personal reason. The Red Wings hope the opportunity to play alongside their most productive players will boost Suter, who has just one goal and one assist in 11 games. The Red Wings have scored only one goal the past two games and have registered only 26 shots on goal in their past five periods. “If it takes a little bit of line juggling, then it takes a little bit of line juggling.

DETROIT – Joe Veleno snapped a tie late in the third period and assisted on another goal Thursday to lift the Detroit Red Wings past the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-2 in a preseason game at Little Caesars Arena. Thomas Greiss made 22 saves for the Red Wings (4-3-0). The Red Wings led 1-0 after the first period on Suter’s second preseason goal, coming two seconds after a power play expired. The Red Wings wrap up the preseason Saturday at Buffalo (3 p.m.). The Red Wings released forwards Turner Elson, Jon Martin, Dominik Shine, Tyler Spezia, Kirill Tyutyayev, Hayden Verbeek and Dennis Yan from their professional tryouts.

Pius Suter’s first-period power-play goal was all the offense the Detroit Red Wings mustered Sunday in a 5-1 preseason loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins at PPG Paints Arena. Alex Nedeljkovic started in goal for the Red Wings and allowed four goals on 23 shots in 35:15. Kasperi Kapanen scored two goals for the Penguins (2-1). Danton Heinen had a goal and two assists while Jeff Carter and Kris Letang each scored a goal. The Red Wings finish a stretch of three games in three days Monday against the Chicago Blackhawks at Little Caesars Arena (7:30 p.m., Bally Sports Detroit).

They are counting on Robby Fabbri and Pius Suter to provide that support. As Raymond competes for a season-opening roster spot with the likes of veteran Bobby Ryan, Fabbri and Suter will be fixtures on the second line. “It’s been a while since I’ve been in a game; I was excited to get these preseason games going,” Fabbri said. “For the first time a bunch of us have played this year, we came together and played a good game. “He’s smart, he’s a playmaker, he’s strong on his stick for a guy who’s a bit undersized.

Lucas Raymond was the first to get a look in that spot on Thursday, and he didn’t look out of place, scoring in his first career preseason game and adding an assist as the Detroit Red Wings defeated the Buffalo Sabres 6-2 at Little Caesars Arena. Luke Witkowski and Jon Martin also scored for the Red Wings (2-0). The Red Wings scored four goals in the second period, including three in a span of 3:12 early in the frame to take the lead. The Red Wings peppered Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen with 18 shots in the first period, including seven on their first power play, but couldn’t convert. The Red Wings host Columbus on Saturday (7 p.m.).

Pius Suter doesn’t possess any particular skill that stands out, which might explain why he was overlooked in the draft seven years ago. The Detroit Red Wings signed Suter to solidify their troublesome second-line center spot and boost their offense and have liked what they have seen thus far in training camp. “I want to play and also help the team grow,” Suter said. “It’s just keep doing what I did last year and make the team better,” Suter said. Every game you get a bit more experience but in general you just feel a bit more comfortable.

The Detroit Red Wings start training camp at the end of September.

The Chicago Blackhawks are trying to rebuild, sort of? They let 25-year-old forward Pius Suter walk away, opting not to sign him after his stellar rookie NHL season.

After making a few trades and signing a handful of free agents over the past couple of weeks, Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman believes his team improved offensively and defensively. I think our back end is a little stronger, a little bit more mobile, maybe a little bit more offense out of it. Having (Pius) Suter with a healthy Tyler Bertuzzi, I think we’ll get a little bit more offensive output from everyone. He’s got good hands, good hockey sense.”The Red Wings ranked second-to-last in the NHL in goals per game. Much of the Red Wings’ remaining salary cap space will be used to sign their restricted free agents, a group that includes Vrana, Bertuzzi, Hronek and Adam Erne.

Pius Suter wasn’t drafted, forcing him to play in his native Switzerland for six seasons before finally getting his break and making it to the NHL at age 24. Their loss could be the Red Wings’ gain, after Detroit signed the skilled center Wednesday to a two-year contract valued at $3.25 million per season. Suter (5-11, 176) can fill the second-line center void. He had 14 goals and 17 assists in 55 games, including a hat trick against the Red Wings on Jan. 24. He knew a little about the Red Wings from playing against them eight times during the temporary realignment in 2021 and tallying five goals and an assist.

The Detroit Red Wings have signed center Pius Suter to a two-year contract.

The Detroit Red Wings signed center Pius Suter to a two-year contract on Wednesday. Suter, 25, tallied 14 goals and 27 points in 55 games as a rookie with the Chicago Blackhawks, including a hat trick against the Red Wings on Jan. 24. But the Blackhawks declined to make him a qualifying offer, so he became an unrestricted free agent. The left-shooting Suter (5-11, 176) played junior hockey for OHL Guelph, where he was a teammate with Detroit’s Tyler Bertuzzi for two seasons. Suter wasn’t drafted and wound up playing five-plus seasons in his native Switzerland before signing with Chicago.
