After that, a look at where this team is at as we head into our Christmas break, including Dylan Larkin's scoring slump, how the team is performing behind Lucas Raymond, Alex DeBrincat & Co., & whether the tank for Hagens, Schaefer, Martone, Misa, etc. is truly on for Steve Yzerman's Hockeytown team (20:35).

No matter what, it always feels good to beat the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Tune in as we open by discussing the Detroit Red Wings and their two most recent games: a horrendous performance where Scott Laughton & Matvei Michkov danced around Derek Lalonde's squad despite Cam Talbot's best efforts (and a late Ben Chiarot goal), whether Sebastian Cossa would've made a difference, & John Tortorella & The Michigan (4:50), as well as a 4-2 win in Detroit over Matthews, Marner, & the Leafs, including Jack Campbell being called up to back up Ville Husso's 1st win of the season, Jeff Petry scoring twice (one being given to Rasmussen retroactively), Moritz Seider banging home a nice play from Andrew Copp and Patrick Kane, Berggren's ill-advised cross-check, offside reviews, Lucas Raymond sealing the game, & more (13:35)!
After that, we analyze the usage of Moritz Seider and Simon Edvinsson, how it signals that Steve Yzerman may only be a couple moves away from making this team a lot better, how Dylan Larkin, Alex DeBrincat, & others fit into that timeline, & more positive outlooks (27:55).

Has reality set in on the Detroit Red Wings season?

We then get into whether this season is a write-off and Steve Yzerman's Hockeytown team is truly in tank mode for Hagens, Schaefer, Martone, Frondell, or Misa, with players like Kane, Compher, Copp, Tarasenko, and others not performing and only the likes of Larkin, Raymond, DeBrincat, Moritz Seider, and Simon Edvinsson carrying the team (20:40).
We then discuss how bad the rest of the Atlantic has been including the Buffalo Sabres, Montreal Canadiens, and Ottawa Senators, before discussing whether Sebastian Cossa should get playing time with Alex Lyon and Cam Talbot still out (39:48).
Finally, the Jacob Trouba saga ends, how Steve Yzerman and the Detroit Red Wings played into the story, Drury escaping the contract and paying Shesterkin, & more (including Luke Richardson being fired) (52:55) before we take your questions & comments in our Overtime segment (1:05:35) - enjoy!

Don't let Lucas Raymond get hot!
Tune in as (after a quick practical joke on a returning Evan Lobsinger) we cover the Detroit Red Wings and their 2 (TWO) game winning streak, including a merciful final game to get the season sweep against Patrick Roy's New York Islanders, including Moritz Seider, Lucas Raymond, Dylan Larkin, Simon Edvinsson, and Alex Lyon's contributions in the win (4:50), as well as Alex DeBrincat, Lucas Raymond, Cam Talbot, and Simon Edvinsson helping Derek Lalonde's squad to win a grind of a game against the Calgary Flames (11:50).
Next, we discuss Lucas Raymond heating up and finding his scoring touch & what his upper ceiling may be offensively (23:55), as well as just how good Moritz Seider and especially Simon Edvinsson have been (28:20).
We then take a look at the NHL trade market, and whether Steve Yzerman has one or two crown jewels in Alex Lyon and Cam Talbot for teams looking to compete for the Stanley Cup (Edmonton Oilers, Colorado Avalanche, Carolina Hurricanes), what a return would look like, and whether he should even consider trading some of Hockeytown's best players this season (or someone like Patrick Kane down the road) (35:35).

The Detroit Red Wings freefalling, Derek Lalonde's seat getting hotter, Jim Montgomery fired in Boston...is change coming in Hockeytown?
Tune in as we start with an ugly overtime loss for the Red Wings in San Jose, including Dylan Larkin's 50 goal pace, Marco Kasper continuing to improve, Simon Edvinsson slotting in and scaring us all, Cam Talbot's tough night (as well as Compher), Alex DeBrincat, Lucas Raymond, Patrick Kane, Moritz Seider, and the Red Wings power play keeping things alive, Rasmussen's awkward goal, and the lacklustre effort in a must-win game (6:05).
After that, a discussion on where this leaves the Red Wings season, if Detroit is destined to fire their coach, the schedule ahead, and an overall analysis on how this affects the "Yzerplan" as Steve Yzerman seeks to balance the rebuild (with Sandin Pellikka, Brandsegg-Nygard, Cossa, Augustine, Danielson, Buchelnikov, & others in the pipeline) with this tough season (15:00).

After that, a predictable loss to Cam Talbot's former team in the Los Angeles Kings, including another lopsided affair where only Dylan Larkin's goal could at all spoil the show as Moritz Seider had to contend without his defensive partner (13:40). After that, what Simon Edvinsson being out would mean for Steve Yzerman's Hockeytown team and what the game against San Jose means for them (Hagens? Martone? Misa?) (20:25).
Next, we have the big discussion: does Steve Yzerman need to consider firing Derek Lalonde? How much of the defensive woes are on Lalonde vs. Yzerman bringing in the likes of Gustafsson, Holl, Petry, and others? Who would replace him - Quenneville? McLellan? Montgomery? Sullivan? Can this be turned around? All of that and lots more as the Detroit Red Wings and their fans look for answers (27:05).
After that, more Red Wings news including Jack Campbell returning and being waived to the Grand Rapids Griffins, Larkin's goal pace, the stellar play of Nate Danielson, Dmitri Buchelnikov, Emmitt Finnie, & more (48:50) before we get into NHL news including the rising salary cap (& what it means for Detroit's core), Pittsburgh's whole team being sick, & more (55:40).
All of that & plenty more before we take your questions & comments in our Overtime segment (1:03:15) - enjoy!

After that, we visit the Seider - Edvinsson pairing usage and how it stacks up to last season, Walman, the rest of the league, & more, as well as revisiting the whole "Larkin seems a bit off" conversation - which he promptly put to rest (26:45).
Next, a quick discusson on whether Patrick Kane can make Team USA alongside the Tkachuk's at the 4 Nations Faceoff and our favorite Pavel Datsyuk moments as he heads into the Hockey Hall of Fame (sadly not alongside Henrik Zetterberg) (38:40), before jumping into NHL news including Kaprizov's Hart start, Barry Trotz's rebuild warnings in Nashville despite Stamkos & Co. just being signed, & plenty more (42:30) before we take your questions & comments in our Overtime segment (55:10) - enjoy!

The Detroit Red Wings won...but at what cost?
Tune in as we discuss the NHL's most boring victory on Frozen Frenzy night, as the Red Wings beat the Islanders on Long Island 1-0 thanks to Patrick Kane's goal from Tarasenko, a ton of huge saves in Alex Lyon's shutout performance, Simon Edvinsson and Moritz Seider working well together, and a measly 11 shots on goal. We discuss why the offense has been so anemic despite Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, Alex DeBrincat, Kane, Compher, Berggren, and others all looking to take steps, the strength of the Edvinsson-Seider pair compared to the rest of Derek Lalonde's defense corps, and Alex Lyon's stellar play to start the season (4:30).

Marco Kasper has joined the Detroit Red Wings for his season debut, and not a moment too soon.
Tune in as we cover Detroit's two games, including a tough loss against the New York Rangers in Hockeytown that had very few positives (like Moritz Seider and J.T.

After that, Detroit's bounceback win against the Nashville Predators as Kasper, Alex Lyon, Raymond, Larkin, Seider & Co. managed to stave off the bad vibes with a victory ().
