Summary
Amidst the chaos going on with the Toronto Maple Leafs (sorry to Steve Dangle), Detroit Red Wings fans are steeped in a somewhat connected debate: should Steve Yzerman go after Mitch Marner this offseason, or would Hockeytown be better off spending the big dollars elsewhere? Tune in as we give our analysis, compare Marner to options like Gavrikov and Knies in terms of how they'd help Dylan Larkin, Alex DeBrincat, Lucas Raymond, Moritz Seider, Simon Edvinsson & Co., & what he would make compared to the likes of Mikko Rantanen (4:45). Also, updates on Detroit Red Wings at the World Championships, as Michael Brandsegg-Nygard, Marco Kasper, Eduards Tralmaks, Lucas Raymond, Simon Edvinsson, and Erik Gustafsson roll on, as well as notes on Viking Gustafsson Nyberg and Maxime Comtois (27:30).
Next, Stanley Cup Playoffs updates, as Brind'Amour's Hurricanes make easy work of Ovechkin and the Capitals, Connor McDavid and the Oilers move on again, the Dallas Stars beat the Jets in an emotional affair as Scheifele fights through tragedy, and the Leafs & Panthers are steeped in another hilariously dramatic series (35:50). Also, former Detroit Red Wings head coach is potentially joining Connor Bedard and the Chicago Blackhawks (47:40).
Finally, our 2025 NHL Draft Prospect Profile on Justin Carbonneau of the QMJHL: how does he compare to Kasper, Danielson, and Brandsegg-Nygard, do the Red Wings need another player like him or should they swing for more upside, and does he fit the "Steve Yzerman mould"? (58:25)
All of that & lots more before we take your questions and comments in our Overtime segment (1:09:45) - enjoy!

| 0:19.1 | Here are your hosts, Brian Hanna, Brad Criscoe, and Evan Lopsinger. |
| 0:29.6 | Never in my life have I been so close to saying we should delay the recording of the |
| 0:35.5 | Winged Wheel podcast, a Detroit Red Wings |
| 0:37.5 | podcast based on |
| 0:39.0 | the fact that there's a Toronto Maple Leafs |
| 0:41.4 | game to be played tonight. |
| 0:44.1 | And yet |
| 0:44.8 | the last two games have been so |
| 0:47.6 | funny, my immediate |
| 0:49.7 | thought was we need to be recording. |
| 0:51.6 | Did we not record since the 6-1 or 5-1 win? |
| 0:56.4 | I thought it was 6-1. |
| 0:57.5 | I mean, I feel like everything after 5 is the same thing. |
| 1:00.3 | Yeah. |
| 1:01.0 | And it was barely, the leaves barely had the 1. |
| 1:04.6 | It felt like they should have not counted it. |
| 1:07.0 | Like, you guys need two before we really believe that you're going to score here. |
| 1:10.3 | That's crazy that we haven't recorded since that. I thought for sure we've already talked |
| 1:14.1 | about that. And then there was the win afterwards, which was the most predictable thing in the |
| 1:18.6 | world because everyone was so despondent. Nobody more so than Steve Dangle. Oh, poor guy. |
