Calling All Hockey Heads: Tuning in to the Detroit Red Wings on the Radio
Hey hockey fans! It's that time again – time to ditch the cable bill (or figure out which friend has the right password) and get back to the good ol' days of catching the Red Wings on the radio. There's something undeniably special about that crackle and pop, the iconic voice of the play-by-play announcer, and the commercials that sound like they were recorded in someone's basement (but somehow add to the charm).
But with all the radio stations out there in Motown, it can feel like you're on a one-man scramble drill trying to find the right frequency. Fear not, fellow Winged Wheel warriors, because this guide will have you yelling "LGRW!" at the radio like a pro in no time.

| What Radio Station Can I Listen To Detroit Red Wings |
Your Wings on the Dial: The Official Station
The undisputed king of Red Wings radio is WSGW 790 AM and 100.5 FM. That's right, folks, this is your one-stop shop for all things Red Wings, from the pre-game hype to the post-game analysis (and maybe some questionable takes from callers during intermission). Just a heads-up, some games might get bumped to the FM frequency due to scheduling conflicts, but WSGW will always be your home base for Wings on the radio.
Tip: Keep your attention on the main thread.
Alternative Frequencies: When WSGW Gets Busy
Life's a game of adjustments, and sometimes WSGW might be broadcasting something else besides the Wings (shocking, I know). But don't fret, hockey fans, because there's a rumor (wink, wink) that 95.3 WBCKFM might occasionally pick up the Red Wings broadcast. It's not guaranteed, but it's worth a shot if you're striking out on WSGW.
Remember: This is like trying to find that perfect parking spot downtown – a little luck and some quick maneuvering might be involved.
Tip: Reread sections you didn’t fully grasp.
Bonus Round: Streaming the Wings (For When You Ditch the Radio Altogether)
Listen, we all have our preferences. Maybe you're rocking a fancy car with no AM/FM radio, or perhaps you just prefer the crystal-clear audio of a stream. The Red Wings do have a radio broadcast available online, so you can catch the game on your phone, laptop, or whatever tech gizmo you use these days.
Just a word to the wise: Streaming can eat up your data, so make sure you have a Wi-Fi connection or a hefty data plan before you go all-in.
Tip: Don’t skip the small notes — they often matter.
