Lucas Raymond joins Red Wings legends with historic 70-point streak
Lucas Raymond has become the third Detroit Red Wings player in 20 years to record at least 70 points in three straight seasons. His latest milestone came after scoring a goal against the Philadelphia Flyers. This achievement places him alongside club legends Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg in the team's recent history. Raymond's consistency has been remarkable over the past three campaigns. In the 2021-22 season, he registered 72 points, with 31 goals and 41 assists across 82 games. The following year, he improved further, finishing with 80 points—27 goals and 53 assists—again in 82 matches.
This season, he reached the 70-point mark once more, scoring 23 goals and adding 47 assists in 70 games. His plus-minus rating of +9 reflects his strong two-way play. No other player in Red Wings history has managed 70-plus points in three consecutive NHL seasons, based on available records. The winger's latest goal, which secured his 70th point of the campaign, came during a game against Philadelphia. This performance cements his status as one of Detroit's most reliable offensive threats in recent years.
Raymond now stands alongside Datsyuk and Zetterberg as the only Red Wings players in the last two decades to hit 70 points in three back-to-back seasons. His scoring ability and playmaking have made him a key figure for the team. The milestone also highlights his role in Detroit's ongoing push for competitive success.
