SURPRISE: How the Detroit Red Wings, New York Islanders and Boston Bruins are all back in the hunt

Detroit Red Wings and New York Islanders shock the NHL by rising above expectations as their young cores ignite playoff hopes. Is sustainable success on the horizon for these surprising contenders in a turbulent Atlantic Division? Nick Zararis and Hunter Hodies spotlight Moritz Seider’s leap to Norris-caliber defense, Lucas Raymond’s playmaking, and Alex DeBrincat’s scoring surge for the Red Wings—fueled by a revitalized John Gibson in net and timely depth contributions.

For the Islanders, rookie sensation Matthew Schaefer changes the franchise trajectory alongside Ilya Sorokin’s Vezina-worthy season and Mat Barzal’s resurgence. The hosts highlight strategic coaching adjustments, power play improvements for the Boston Bruins, and whether offensive firepower can compensate for defensive woes as the playoff race heats up. Which Eastern Conference surprise can maintain momentum and upend preseason narratives?
