Friday, 20 March, 2026
In this special edition of The Detroit News' OctoPulse podcast, Ted Kulfan takes a look at the Red Wings huge win over the Canadiens on Thursday and how they may need at least 100 points to get into the playoffs. The Wing have 84 points and are tied for the Eastern Conference wild-card position with the Boston Bruins. The Wings and Bruins will meet Saturday at Little Caesars Arena (8 p.m., ABC). It's been four years since all eight playoff teams in the East needed 100 wins for the playoffs. In 2021-22, Detroit had only 74 points in Jeff Blashill's final season as coach in Detroit.
