The Detroit Red Wings wrapped their early-season homestand with a shootout win over San Jose, with Lucas Raymond scoring the decisive goal Detroit Hockey Now. The victory came as the team prepares for a four-game road trip, and Raymond's performance is seen as a potential turning point after a slow start to his season.
