This is your Detroit Sports Daily for March 27th, 2023.

Michigan Wolverines:

The Michigan Wolverines hockey team advanced to the Frozen Four Sunday night with a thrilling 2-1 overtime victory over Penn State. The winning goal was scored 52 seconds into OT by Mackie Samoskevich. Michigan will now face Quinnipiac on Thursday, April 6th in Tampa, Florida.  

 

Detroit Lions:

The Lions are rumored to be potentially looking to trade for Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton. With DJ Chark signing with the Carolina Panthers recently this has left Detroit with an opening at wideout and Sutton could be a potential fit.

 

If you’re unfamiliar with the Denver pass catcher here are some of his highlights.

 

 

Detroit Tigers:

The Tigers played the final spring training game of the year on Sunday afternoon defeating the Tampa Bay Rays 11-10. The game’s biggest highlight was Riley Greene’s 3-run homer in the 5th inning.

 

The Tigers finished their exhibition season with a 14-16 record. More notably, Detroit finished Grapefruit League play with the most runs scored while also allowing the second most runs against in all of MLB. So despite the new rules to decrease the length of games across the league if spring training is any indication, we may still be in for some long, high-scoring Tigers games this year.

Detroit Pistons:

The Pistons were off on Sunday but will take on Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks tonight at 7 pm at LCA. 

Detroit Red Wings:

The Wings are off until Tuesday night when they take on the Penguins at home.
