How can the Detroit Red Wings turn things around, and when? Max Bultman of The Athletic Detroit joins us on this episode to discuss!
Tune in as we open by discussing Detroit's 2-1 win over the New York Islanders on PAvel Datsyuk's HHoF night in Hockeytown, including Jonatan Berggren breaking Sorokin's shutout, Dylan Larkin's great play to Lucas Raymond for the winner, Alex Lyon's bounceback performance & more (3:40). Next, their disappointing loss to the Boston Bruins, including Seider, Edvinsson, Tarasenko connecting for a great goal and a whole lot of not much else in front of Cam Talbot, followed by a discussion of what Derek Lalonde's team truly is at this point in the year, what's realistic for them moving forward, potential trade targets for Steve Yzerman to focus on (David Jiricek, Trevor Zegras, Seamus Casey, Bowen Byram?), & more (16:00).
After that, updates as Jim Montgomery is immediately hired by the St. Louis Blues and what this means for Derek Lalonde, as well as Red Wings notes including Albert Johansson's development, Amadeus Lombardi, and Dmitri Buchelnikov (37:55).
Next, Max's "Good in the Room" segment covering the rising salary cap in the NHL, how Detroit's core contracts are shaping up, and Steve Yzerman's window to grab a superstar like Marner, Rantanen, or someone else to accelerate the rebuild (56:20).
Finally, NHL news including Alexander Ovechkin's injury update (1:15:30) before we take your questions & comments in our Overtime segment (1:16:50) - enjoy!

0:19.0 | Here are your hosts, Ryan Hanna, Brad Criscoe, and Evan Lopsinger. |
0:31.6 | Evan's away still. |
0:34.2 | So, Max, you have to decide, are you going to be the new Evan, like pretend to be Evan this episode? |
0:38.4 | Or are you just going to be Max Boltman, like a good in the room episode on the winged wheel podcast? |
0:41.8 | Because folks might miss him and we're kind of, you know, down his personality right now. |
0:46.5 | I think when you try to imitate greatness, you set yourself up to fail. |
0:50.9 | So I'm just going to be me. |
0:52.2 | I don't think I can rise to the, to the Evan standard. |

0:59.8 | I was laughing before the show saying, |
1:02.4 | Max, |
1:02.6 | you're the sacrificial lamb for this episode. |
1:04.4 | Because it's not like the Red Wings went out |
1:05.6 | and had themselves a barn burner of a weekend |
1:07.5 | where they turned everything around |
1:08.9 | or there's any big news or a trade |
1:11.1 | or any kind of change. So you're in here today with the impossible task of talking about this |
1:16.7 | team that is in neutral right now. So welcome back, Max Boltman of the Athletic Detroit to the |
