Detroit Red Wings’ 3-game win streak quacks up vs Ducks on 2nd night of SoCal back-to-back

ANAHEIM, Calif. — The Detroit Red Wings, looking a bit tired from playing a long game night before, had a hard time slowing down as fast as an opponent as they’ve seen so far this season.

The Wings used the same roster against the Anaheim Ducks on Friday, Oct. 31, as had played 24 hours earlier up I-5 in Los Aneles, except for a change in goal. But the Ducks were too much to handle, and the Wings wound up losing, 5-2, at Honda Center to snap a three-game win streak.

The game featured a steady path to the penalty box for both sides, with six infractions called in the second and four straight within the first eight minutes of the third period. When the Red Wings (8-4-0) got a man advantage with 5:27 to play, it was their seventh power play of the game.

The Wings pulled John Gibson, making his return to the arena where he starred with the Ducks for 12 seasons, soon after that expired for an extra attacker, but Troy Terry took advantage to score his second of the night. Leo Carlsson had a four-point night.

Tired start

The Wings came into Anaheim off a late night Thursday, when their game against the Los Angeles Kings went all the way to a shootout. They looked tired at the start against the Ducks, and were burned on a power play for a second straight night, with Terry taking off on a breakaway with Axel Sandin Pellika giving chase only to see Terry fire the puck behind Gibson. But the Wings were able to even the score within four minutes, when Dylan Larkin sprang Lucas Raymond, who picked up his third goal of the season on a wrist shot.

Carlsson, the second overall pick in 2023, scored when Terry carried the puck into Detroit’s zone, went unchallenged by Simon Edvinsson’s stick waving, and found Carlsson, who made it 2-1 with a shot from the right circle.

The Wings celebrated a goal at 4:57 of the second period, only to have it taken away after an extensive video review. Alex DeBrincat whipped a pass to Marco Kasper. Goalie Lukas Dostal stopped that, but Moritz Seider got to the rebound. Officials deemed that Seider kicked the puck in, though it appeared on replays that he was trying to kick the puck to his stick. The bottom line: It remained 2-1 to the Ducks.

At least for a few minutes more, until Mason McTavish circled around a crowd in front of the crease and flung the puck on net, making it 3-1 at 6:35. DeBrincat turned a pass from Raymond into a 3-2 game. DeBrincat now has goals in four straight games.

The Ducks reclaimed a two-goal lead when Chris Kreider scored 55 seconds into the third period, with officials ruling Gibson caused his net to jump off its moorings prior to the puck going into the net.

Clear skies give Metro Detroit perfect Blue Moon viewing weather

4Warn Weather – After a gorgeous Saturday, wonderful weather will continue for Metro Detroit for the second half of the weekend and into next week.

Don’t forget to check out the Blue Moon this evening; our sun sets just after 9 p.m. It’s named the Blue Moon not for color, but because it’s the second full moon of the month.

Check out the Blue Moon tonight at dusk (WDIV)

It’s also a micromoon, meaning the moon is at its farthest point from the earth that it will be all month. It will reach peak fullness at 4:45 a.m. Sunday morning.

Having two full moons in one month only happens once about every 2 to 3 years.

Also, Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury will line up in the western sky.

If you’ll be sitting or standing outdoors for a bit, temperatures will be comfortable tonight, falling to near 60° by 10 p.m. before dropping to the low 40s to near 50° overnight.

Forecasted low temps tonight (WDIV)

That leads to a beautiful Sunday with sunshine and highs in the low to mid 70s.

Forecasted high temps Sunday (WDIV)

UV levels will be in the Very High range tomorrow, so if you’ll be outside you may want to grab the sunscreen.

Southeast Michigan will continue to have plenty of sunny days into the coming week. The next chance for rain holds off until late Friday.

Highs will warm to around 80° for Monday for most areas. Closer to the shoreline you’ll find more 70s if not the 60s. Tuesday and Wednesday will feature highs back near 80° before we see mid 80s Thursday and Friday.

Archdiocese of Detroit’s list of parishes chosen for halted Masses grows

Archdiocese of Detroit’s list of parishes chosen for halted Masses grows

The list of churches targeted for the possible stoppage of weekend Masses has grown to at least 58 parishes across southeast Michigan, according to the latest proposed models the Archdiocese of Detroit had released as part of its major restructuring process through Friday.

At least 22 parishes under the first round of proposed models wouldn’t hold weekend Mass. The archdiocese has been divided into 15 planning areas, or geographic areas, and three or four models are being proposed for each planning area, said the Rev. Mario Amore, executive director of parish renewal for the Archdiocese of Detroit.

The archdiocese has been holding listening sessions with parishioners this spring as part of its restructuring plan to get reactions.

The models have different proposed groupings of parishes, in which a grouping would share a pastor and potentially other priests. In some cases, selected churches in the grouping would no longer hold Sunday Mass.

The Archdiocese of Detroit released on May 22 and this past week the model proposals for another five planning areas, including areas of Macomb County, Oakland County and Detroit. Around 36 more parishes would no longer hold Mass in the future under the latest proposals.

Bunches of churches in Detroit would be affected, while four parishes in Troy and three parishes in Clinton Township wouldn’t have Saturday Vigil Mass or Sunday Mass under each of the proposed models presented for their planning areas.

Archdiocese of Detroit spokesperson Holly Fournier said the archdiocese has heard a wide range of reactions about the proposed models, which is “understandable given how personal parish life is for people.”

“Some pastors and parishioners are hopeful about opportunities for stronger collaboration and renewed ministry, while others are experiencing more uncertainty and concern, especially in places where one or more models suggest a parish might no longer host weekend Masses in the future,” she said.

Fournier emphasized that the models are “draft models” and aren’t final decisions.

The models for the final six planning areas will be released in June, according to the restructuring website.

The models are part of the archdiocese’s biggest restructuring plan in years. Announced last fall, Archbishop Edward Weisenburger said the archdiocese can’t maintain the roughly 200 existing parish buildings it has and is working to “right-size” the archdiocese, along with its personnel and financial resources.

These are the latest affected parishes in Detroit, Oakland and Macomb counties

Fournier said the draft models were developed by priests earlier this year and are being presented in listening sessions as proposals “meant to spark broader consultation with the faithful.” Each parish in the archdiocese is holding listening sessions this spring or early summer.

In other dioceses that have undergone restructuring processes like the Archdiocese of Detroit’s, as many as 20-40% of the initial models were changed as a result of parishioner feedback, Fournier said.

“That is why it is so important for Catholics to attend their parish listening sessions to view these models and provide their honest feedback, so informed adjustments can be made where necessary,” she said in an email.

One of the most heavily affected groupings is Planning Area 1, which includes west Detroit. Ten of its 13 parishes would not have Saturday Vigil Mass or Sunday Mass in at least one of the model plans. They include Christ the King, Presentation/Our Lady of Victory, SS. Peter and Paul (Jesuit), SS. Peter and Paul (Westside), St. Charles Lwanga Church, St. Mary of Redford, St. Moses the Black Parish, St. Peter Claver Parish, St. Scholastica and St. Suzanne-Our Lady Gate of Heaven, all of which are in Detroit.

Planning Area 9, which includes southeastern Oakland County, has between 15 and 19 parishes, depending on the model. Ten of the parishes wouldn’t hold weekend Mass in at least one of the models. Four of them are in Troy.

They include St. Lucy in Troy, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton in Troy, Christ Our Light in Troy, St. Thomas More in Troy, St. Owen in Bloomfield Township, Our Lady of La Salette in Berkley, Our Mother of Perpetual Help in Oak Park, St. Justin-St. Mary Magdalen in Hazel Park, St. Vincent Ferrer in Madison Heights and Divine Providence in Southfield.

Planning Area 10, which includes all of northern Oakland County and parts of western Oakland County, has 19 to 22 parishes, depending on the model. Seven would stop holding weekend Mass in at least one of the models, including St. Benedict in Waterford Township, St. Thomas More in Troy, Sacred Heart in Auburn Hills, St. John Fisher Chapel University Parish in Auburn Hills, St. Perpetua in Waterford Township, St. Rita in Holly and Prince of Peace in West Bloomfield Township.

Planning Area 12, which includes parts of southern and eastern Macomb County, has 16 parishes. Four Warren parishes and three Clinton Township parishes would stop holding Mass under the draft models.

St. Louise de Marillac in Warren wouldn’t hold Saturday Vigil or Sunday Mass in two of the three draft models presented by the archdiocese. Six other parishes would not hold weekend Mass in only one of the models, including St. Louis in Clinton Township, San Francesco in Clinton Township, St. Ronald in Clinton Township, St. Martin de Porres in Warren, St. Faustina in Warren and St. Mark in Warren.

Planning Area 13, which includes areas of central and northern Macomb County and a parish in Troy, has 14 or 16 parishes, depending on the draft model. Three parishes in the planning area wouldn’t have weekend Mass under at least one of the models: St. Jane Frances de Chantal in Sterling Heights, St. Matthias in Sterling Heights and SS. John and Paul in Washington Township.

Amore said that if a church stops holding Sunday Mass, parishioners are encouraged to worship at other churches in their “pastorate,” which is a grouping of parishes overseen by a pastor. In the long term, the church building might close, or other sacramental celebrations might take place there, such as weddings and baptisms, he said.

The parish’s buildings could also be repurposed for other uses, such as religious education classes.

Fournier said the proposed models are meant to “foster discussion and discernment.”

“We encourage Catholics to stay engaged in the process, share their feedback honestly, and remember that the goal is not simply organizational change, but ensuring vibrant Catholic communities for future generations,” she said.
