Blackhawks vs. Red Wings: Kane, DeBrincat, Bedard, Predictions
November 29, 2023 by Gail Kauchak
The Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Red Wings will meet this Thursday (Nov. 30) for the first time since former Blackhawk Alex DeBrincat donned the winged wheel and joined his hometown team. While these two clubs aren’t in the same division anymore, they are both Original 6 teams with a rich history, and many past rivalries with each other. It’s always exciting when these two teams match up.
With this in mind, I reached out to my THW colleague Devin Little, who covers the Red Wings, to learn more about the current state of the team. After all, it never hurts to keep an eye on the enemy!
