Red Wings' Simon Edvinsson: Lends assist Saturday
Edvinsson posted an assist and blocked three shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
Edvinsson has three helpers, 19 blocks, 16 PIM and 12 shots on net over 10 outings in March. The offense has slipped for the 22-year-old blueliner this month, but he remains firmly in a top-four role. He's at 26 points, 66 shots on net, 121 blocks, 66 hits, 52 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 65 contests this season, and he's been able to provide decent fantasy value in some formats despite a lack of power-play time.

Red Wings' Moritz Seider: Nabs helper with man advantage
Seider logged a power-play assist, three shots on goal, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
Seider has been limited to four points, all on the power play, over 10 contests in March. The 23-year-old's slowdown on offense isn't cause for concern -- it's part of a larger struggle for the Red Wings, who have scored three or more goals in just four games this month. Seider is at 39 points (21 on the power play), 141 shots on net, 182 hits, 156 blocked shots, 36 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 69 appearances. He should be able to exceed the 42-point totals he's posted in each of the last two campaigns.

Red Wings' Dylan Larkin: Dishes two power-play helpers
Larkin logged two power-play assists and three shots on goal in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
Larkin's had a strong March, earning four goals and five assists over 10 contests this month. He helped out on power-play tallies by Lucas Raymond and Patrick Kane in this game. Larkin is up to 62 points (26 on the power play), 213 shots on net and a minus-7 rating through 69 appearances this season. He's still on pace to reach the 70-point mark for the third time in his career, a level that he's fallen short of in two of the last three years.

Red Wings' Alex DeBrincat: Scores in Saturday's loss
DeBrincat scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
DeBrincat has three goals and three assists over his last five outings. The 27-year-old's tally brought the Red Wings within two in the third period Saturday, but a comeback push didn't materialize. The winger is up to 32 goals, 59 points, 203 shots on net and a minus-15 rating through 69 appearances. He's on a pace similar to the last two years when he totaled 66 and 67 points, though he's done it with a bit more goal scoring in 2024-25. However, he probably doesn't have the time left in the season to push for his career-high total of 41 goals, a level he reached in both 2018-19 and 2021-22.

Red Wings' Lucas Raymond: Opens with power-play goal in loss
Raymond scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
Raymond has tallied twice over the last three games after enduring a 10-game goal drought from Feb. 23 to March 14. The 22-year-old still had seven assists in that span, remaining a positive presence on offense on the Red Wings' top line. For the season, the winger has 24 goals, 70 points (33 on the power play), 161 shots on net and a minus-10 rating through 69 appearances. He needs just three more points to surpass his career-high 72 from 2023-24.

Red Wings' Patrick Kane: Stands out in loss
Kane scored a power-play goal on four shots and added two assists in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
Kane has three goals and six helpers over his last five games, including this three-point outing and a five-point explosion versus the Sabres on March 12. The 36-year-old winger is doing his part to help the Red Wings' offense, but the team hasn't been very consistent overall lately. Kane is up to 18 goals, 49 points (25 on the power play), 144 shots on net and a minus-13 rating through 59 appearances this season.

Red Wings' Cam Talbot: Poor performance Saturday
Talbot allowed five goals on 35 shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
Talbot's losing streak reached five games, and he's allowed 20 goals in that span. The 37-year-old netminder is down to 17-16-3 with a 3.02 GAA and an .898 save percentage over 38 appearances this season. This outing won't help Talbot's efforts to regain some playing time back from Petr Mrazek, and Alex Lyon is also on the NHL roster, though he hasn't played since March 6 versus Utah. The Red Wings' next game is on the road versus Utah on Monday, the first half of a back-to-back set that wraps up in Colorado on Tuesday.

Red Wings' Brogan Rafferty: Sent back down
Rafferty was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Saturday.
Rafferty didn't play in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights. The 29-year-old defenseman was called up under emergency conditions due to Erik Gustafsson (undisclosed) being out for longer than a day-to-day injury. However, Jeff Petry (undisclosed) is traveling with the Red Wings, and if he's ready to play Monday in Utah, Rafferty would no longer be eligible to be with the big club under emergency conditions, hence the demotion.

Red Wings' Cam Talbot: Tending twine against Vegas
Talbot will guard the road goal versus the Golden Knights on Saturday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Talbot has lost playing time since the Red Wings acquired Petr Mrazek at the trade deadline. Talbot will make his first start in five games, though part of his role reduction was his fault for losing his last four outings. The Golden Knights are a formidable opponent, scoring 19 goals in their past six games despite posting only two wins in that span.

Red Wings' Eduards Tralmaks: Inks deal with Detroit
Tralmaks signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Red Wings on Friday.
Tralmaks spent some time in the AHL and ECHL upon graduating from the University of Maine, but he's played mainly overseas in Czechia with Rytiri Kladno this year, racking up 23 goals, 28 assists and 66 PIM over 48 appearances. His two-way contract with the Red Wings will begin during the 2025-26 campaign, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him back in the AHL next year.

Red Wings' Elmer Soderblom: Set to travel with team
Soderblom (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup against the Golden Knights but will travel with the Red Wings during their upcoming three-game road trip, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Soderblom sustained an undisclosed injury during Tuesday's loss to the Capitals, and he didn't practice Thursday. While he'll be unavailable Saturday, it's encouraging that he'll travel with the team, as it suggests that he could return to game action within the next few days. Dominik Shine is a candidate to enter the lineup in Soderblom's absence.

Red Wings' Erik Gustafsson: Facing extended absence
Gustafsson (undisclosed) is expected to miss an extended period of time, the Red Wings announced Friday, though an official timeline hasn't been determined.
Gustafsson's prognosis, limited though it may be, would explain why the team brought up Brogan Rafferty from the minors to provide some extra depth. In Gustafsson's absence, William Lagesson figures to slot into the third pairing, though he'll find himself relegated to the press box again once Jeff Petry (undisclosed) is cleared to play.

Red Wings' Brogan Rafferty: Promoted from minors
Rafferty was elevated from AHL Grand Rapids under emergency conditions Friday.
Rafferty hasn't appeared in an NHL game since 2020-21 when he was with the Canucks. In the minors, the blueliner has generated six goals and 13 helpers in 50 appearances for the Griffins. With the 29-year-old's promotion, fantasy players should probably expect Erik Gustafsson (undisclosed) to miss out against Vegas on Saturday.

Red Wings' Austin Watson: Called up from minors
Watson was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids on Friday under emergency conditions.
Watson has logged just two games for Detroit this season, with his most recent appearance coming Oct. 30 versus Winnipeg. The decision to call up Watson doesn't bode well for Elmer Soderblom's (undisclosed) availability against the Golden Knights on Saturday.

Red Wings' Jeff Petry: Joining road trip
Petry (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup against Vegas on Saturday but is traveling with the team, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.
Petry has been sidelined since Jan. 2 versus the Blue Jackets, a stretch of 30 games on the shelf due to his undisclosed injury. When healthy, the veteran blueliner has struggled to produce offensively with just one goal and five assists in 34 games. At this point, Petry will almost certainly miss the 20-point mark for the first time since the 2015-16 campaign when he was with Montreal.

Red Wings' Erik Gustafsson: Missing from practice
Gustafsson wasn't on the ice for Thursday's practice session after suffering an undisclosed injury versus Washington on Tuesday, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Gustafsson managed just 13:34 of ice time against the Caps before being forced to exit the game due to his undisclosed injury. The 33-year-old defenseman was mired in a 26-game goal drought during which he generated a mere 26 shots while recording seven helpers. With extra time off, Gustafsson could still be an option to play in Saturday's clash with Vegas.

Red Wings' Elmer Soderblom: Absent from Thursday's practice
Soderblom (undisclosed) didn't participate in Thursday's practice session, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Soderblom exited Tuesday's loss to Washington due to an unspecified injury, and while the extent of the ailment isn't yet known, it was apparently serious enough to keep him out of practice a few days later. It's not yet clear whether he'll be able to suit up for Saturday's game against the Golden Knights.

Red Wings' Ben Chiarot: Grabs helper in loss
Chiarot notched an assist and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Capitals.
Chiarot has a helper in two of his last three contests following a 12-game slump. The 33-year-old is not known to be a generally productive player for fantasy managers, but he can chip in some hits and blocks for those that need to target the physical categories. For the season, the defenseman has 11 points, 94 shots on net, 51 PIM, 106 hits and 121 blocked shots over 67 appearances.
