Summary
The Detroit Red Wings have one of the deepest prospect pool in the NHL, but how many of those are destined to don the Winged Wheel in Hockeytown vs. continuing with the Grand Rapids Griffins in the AHL next season? Tune in as we discuss potential Detroit Red Wings rookie season and which players may join the likes of Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, Marco Kasper, Alex DeBrincat, Patrick Kane, Moritz Seider, Simon Edvinsson, and the rest of Todd McLellan's squad: Nate Danielson, Sebastian Cossa, Carter Mazur, Michael Brandsegg-Nygard (4:55), Axel Sandin Pellikka, Amadeus Lombardi, William Wallinder, Shai Buium (40:30), & more.
Next, a Stanley Cup Playoffs update, including Paul Maurice and Rod Brind'Amour's weird handshake dispute, Pete DeBoer throwing Jake Oettinger under the bus, and our Stanley Cup Final predictions as Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and the Edmonton Oilers rematch against Matthew Tkachuk, Sergei Bobrovsky and the Florida Panthers (54:30).
Finally, we circle our 2025 NHL Draft Prospect Profiles back to Jake O'Brien and Roger McQueen: could either talented pick be available to Steve Yzerman at pick 13, or would he have to trade up to get them (1:11:45)?
All of that & lots more before we take your questions and comments in our Overtime segment (1:22:15) - enjoy!

| 0:46.3 | You know when you wake up and you're like, I could go and just do my day now, I'm so awake. |
| 0:51.2 | I had a vivid, vivid dream that the Detroit Red Wings signed Mitch Marner. |
| 0:58.2 | And I was like, is this a sign from the universe? It was insane. Like, usually I'm just like, |
