Summary

There's no denying it - the Detroit Red Wings have put themselves firmly in the mix of teams competing for a playoff spot.

Tune in as we discuss Detroit's key win over the Washington Capitals, including Hagg's opening goal and Pius Suter's heroics, Dylan Larkin's cross-checking game misconduct, Jakub Vrana getting into his first game in months (with a great backcheck to cover for Moritz Seider), their upcoming schedule, & more (5:40).

Also, Derek Lalonde's decision to play Jakub Vrana, the choice to sit Filip Zadina over Sundqvist or Kubalik, and some late breaking news on Vrana being sent back down (24:00).

We take a look at the close NHL wild card playoff race, credit to Derek Lalonde's progress with this team, which teams are most likely to compete with them, & whether we believe the playoffs may be returning to Hockeytown (34:00).

With that, Steve Yzerman's trade deadline strategies - does he go for a Timo Meier? What did his interesting interview with Allan Walsh on Agent Provocateur tell us about his belief in giving his team the chance to make the postseason? Will Tyler Bertuzzi stay at any cost (48:45)? All of that & lots more, including a note about the late, great Paul Jerrard (1:10:10), before we take your questions during Overtime (1:39:40) - enjoy!

0:47.1	alliance at the end of last season. I understand the irrationality of it all. I understand the objectivity and the wet blanketness sometimes of the argument which we're going to get to and that's our job on this podcast to present things in a balanced way, but I am I bought it. I am absolutely ready to be heard again how about you guys I am on
