It’s hard to imagine that anyone outside of Ferris Bueller enjoys his time in Chicago as much as Detroit Red Wings forward Lucas Raymond does. And In Raymond’s case, he never takes a day off when he’s in the Windy City.

In Saturday’s 3-0 NHL preseason win at Chicago, Raymond scored once and set up Detroit’s two other goals. It was his first appearance at the United Center since October 24, 2021. On that night, Raymond tallied a hat-trick and added an assist as the Red Wings were 6-3 winners over the Blackhawks.

Going, going, GOAL.

That was Raymond’s sixth NHL regular-season game. Speaking of the NHL regular season, Raymond and the Red Wings will be back in Chicago to face the Blackhawks on Oct. 21.
