But, as Dylan Larkin noted, it’s only natural to peek at the standings, especially when things are going as well as they have been the past 2½ weeks for the Detroit Red Wings.

As the Red Wings reach the midway point, let's assess each player based on performance and expectations heading into this season.

That's not nothing, but it's not what caught the Red Wings attention. Instead, Cozens' 31-goal, 37-assist 2022–23 campaign suggests a young player worth bringing in, even after just 47 points a year ago.

Six different Detroit Red Wings scored, with four doing it in the first period, as the Wings crushed the Kraken, 6-2, for their 7th win in a row.

As you may have heard, rumours are swirling from multiple insiders that the Vancouver Canucks are soliciting offers on J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson.
