The Detroit Red Wings have missed the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the 10th consecutive season, marking the longest drought in team history and the current longest in the NHL. This year, former Red Wings players like Alex Lyon and Elmer Soderblom are competing in the playoffs with other teams, further highlighting Detroit’s struggles. Lyon set a Buffalo record with a 10-game winning streak, while Soderblom is proving his potential with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Other former players, including James Reimer and Vladimir Tarasenko, are also back in playoff action, intensifying the disappointment for Red Wings fans.
