Hi everybody, and welcome to  Red Wings Rant: Where tirades and impassioned pleas about your Detroit Red Wings finally have a home. 

The Red Wings missed the playoffs (again), and we don’t even get the catharsis of knowing what moves are on the table yet. So, let’s do the next best thing—scout the winners. 

This week, we’re breaking down the Final Four teams in the NHL Playoffs and analyzing which of their strategies the Red Wings could reasonably copy. 

Should we go all-in on elite top-line scoring like the Oilers? Embrace the relentless physicality and depth of the Panthers? Follow the Hurricanes’ “suffocate and cycle” philosophy? Or build from the net out like the Stars? 

We compare the team builds, cap strategies, systems, and drafting patterns to ask: which model gives Detroit the fastest path back to relevance?
