Summary
The Detroit Red Wings are somehow still not fully out of this...
Tune in as we're joined by Max Bultman of The Athletic Detroit (00:00) and (later on, live from WWP Night at the LCA) Ken Daniels on this episode!
We start by discussing the Red Wings and their loss in Hockeytown to Brady Tkachuk, Tim Stutzle, and the Ottawa Senators, including Simon Edvinsson dropping the gloves with Tkachuk, the non-call on Lucas Raymond, Lyon's tough night, Moritz Seider & Co. struggling, & more as Todd McLellan's squad drops the Atlantic division game (3:40). Next, a big win in Detroit on Winged Wheel Podcast night, as Alex DeBrincat and Austin Watson set the tone with two great scraps, Marco Kasper, Lucas Raymond, and Cam Talbot combine for the win over Pastrnak's Boston Bruins, & more (10:40).
After that, a look at the Stanley Cup Playoff race and whether the 2nd Wild Card spot is really in reach for Detroit over Montreal, New York, or Columbus (21:30).
We then jump to our live interview with Ken Daniels, as he talks Detroit Red Wings hockey, working with Mickey Redmond, how Dylan Larkin, Moritz Seider, Lucas Raymond & Co. will have to catch fire even if Steve Yzerman didn't bring in trade reinforcements, & plenty more (30:15).
Next, Red Wings news on Axel Sandin Pellikka & Michael Brandsegg-Nygard before our 2025 NHL Entry Draft Prospect Profile on Victor Eklund & how he compares to Frondell, Misa, Hagens, & others, as well as NHL news as John Tortorella is fired by the Philadelphia Flyers (1:03:10).
All of that and lots more before we take your questions and comments in our Overtime segment (1:18:00) - enjoy!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Wingwheel podcast, the number one source for news, analysis and discussion, |
| 0:14.5 | on the Detroit Red Wings, the NHL, and all things hockey. |
| 0:19.2 | Here are your hosts, Brian Hanna, Brad Criscoe, and Evan Lopsinger. |
| 0:27.6 | Man, if Marco Casper didn't score in that first period, I was so worried that we were going to get into an actual winged wheel podcast night |
| 0:37.5 | goalless curse. |
| 0:38.3 | Because we went the calendar year 2024 with zero goals. |
| 0:42.1 | I was like next episodes with Max. |
| 0:44.3 | He's going to let us hear it if they get shut out three times in a row. |
| 0:47.8 | For all the, you know, sold out events and stuff, the team's not going to want to do these |
| 0:51.7 | anymore. |
| 0:52.2 | Like this is tough, but thank God for Marco. |
| 0:55.0 | Well, I knew it was a wing and wheel podcast night when there was two fights in the first |
| 0:58.8 | 10 minutes because it had to be an homage to Evan. |
| 1:02.0 | I manifested those, you know, those, that's, you know, people always wonder where the |
| 1:06.3 | Patreon dollars go. |
| 1:07.4 | That is what you get. |
| 1:09.1 | So you're welcome. Believe it or not, the De Brinket |
| 1:11.9 | bribe was more expensive than the Watson one. De Brinket's always ready to go, but Evan actually, |
| 1:17.7 | he had like a pay-to-win thing or he paid a little bit extra for Watson to get that judo throw |
| 1:22.0 | at the end or whatever that takedown was. Is that what he got the 10-minute misconduct for? Is that just for being way too sick in the |
| 1:27.9 | first period? I can only assume that's why, right? They don't announce it. They just say 10-minute |
| 1:32.4 | misconduct. They don't talk, you know, about what they saw, but that's the thing that he did that |
