Raymond scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
Raymond has 10 goals and four assists over his last 12 outings, going no more than one game without a goal in that span. The 22-year-old winger is up to 12 tallies, 31 points, 63 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 30 appearances. Raymond's slow start to the year is a distant memory, and he's cementing his status as one of the Red Wings' most reliable forwards.

Rotowire
Raymond scored the overtime winner and added an assist, both on the power play, in Wednesday's 2-1 victory over the Flames.
The 22-year-old winger extended his goal streak to four games in style -- Raymond collected the puck along the boards, drifted into the slot and wired a shot inside the far post that Dan Vladar simply couldn't handle. Three of Raymond's tallies during his streak have been game-winners, while Wednesday's strike was his first power-play goal of the campaign. The fourth overall pick in the 2020 Draft is up to six goals and 22 points in 22 contests as he steams toward a career-best season.

Red Wings' Lucas Raymond: Earns two points in loss
Rotowire
Raymond scored a goal on two shots and dished a power-play assist in Friday's 6-4 loss to the Ducks.

Red Wings' Lucas Raymond: Stays warm with assist
Rotowire
Raymond provided an assist in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Raymond has a goal and seven assists over his last six games, with five of those eight points coming on the power play. The 22-year-old winger continues to shuffle between the first and second lines, trading places with Patrick Kane regularly, but both are part of the first power-play unit. Raymond has been an excellent playmaker with a goal and 11 assists through 12 outings, but he was a 30-goal scorer last year and is shooting just 5.3 percent, so things should eventually balance out a bit.

Rotowire
Raymond produced two power-play assists in Thursday's 5-3 win against the Devils.
Raymond added two PIM and a plus-1 rating in 20:27 of ice time. The Swedish forward had been held off the scoresheet in back-to-back games before setting up a couple of tallies Thursday.

Red Wings' Lucas Raymond: Records assist Thursday
Rotowire
Raymond notched an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Rangers.
Raymond has four helpers and 11 shots on net through four contests this season. That's a bit of bad luck to not have a goal yet, but the 22-year-old is still involved in the offense. While he saw just 15:26 of ice time in Thursday's loss, Raymond is a virtual lock to remain in a top-six role throughout the year after signing an eight-year contract with a cap hit just north of $8 million in September.

Red Wings' Lucas Raymond: Strong finish to season
Rotowire
Raymond posted an assist in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout win over the Canadiens.
Raymond was Detroit's best player in April, as he delivered seven goals and 12 points through eight contests. Fans of the Winged Wheel were given a renewed sense of hope that their team would be playoff bound in large part to Raymond's game-tying goal against the Penguins last Thursday and his overtime tally versus the Habs on Monday, but the Capitals snuck into the postseason instead by virtue of beating the Flyers in their regular-season finale. Raymond's third season included 31 goals, 41 assists and 16 power-play points through 82 games. He will be a restricted free agent this summer.

Red Wings' Lucas Raymond: Goes off with four points
Rotowire
Raymond earned a hat trick to complement an assist in Thursday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Penguins.
Raymond deposited two backhand goals in the first period, and his breakaway tally in the third frame tied the score at 5-5 to ultimately force overtime. He also was the primary distributor on Detroit's penultimate goal, finding captain Dylan Larkin at the doorstep. Raymond's competitiveness has been off the charts of late, with the four-point night extending his season-long total to 68 points (29 goals, 39 assists) through 79 games. While it's still anyone's guess on whether the Wings will have enough grit to claim a wild-card playoff spot, it's safe to assume that Raymond will soon command a huge raise as a restricted free agent cashing out the balance of a three-year deal worth $3.425 million annually.
