Summary
Has reality set in on the Detroit Red Wings season?
Tune in as we start by discussing Derek Lalonde's squad's two most recent losses, including a late heartbreaker against Brady Tkachuk's Ottawa Senators (including a brutal call on Marco Kasper, Alex DeBrincat scoring against his former squad, Norris beating Husso, & more) (4:25) and a "same old" loss against the Colorado Avalance (including Lucas Raymond's goal off a Dylan Larkin shot & not much else) (16:00). We then get into whether this season is a write-off and Steve Yzerman's Hockeytown team is truly in tank mode for Hagens, Schaefer, Martone, Frondell, or Misa, with players like Kane, Compher, Copp, Tarasenko, and others not performing and only the likes of Larkin, Raymond, DeBrincat, Moritz Seider, and Simon Edvinsson carrying the team (20:40).
We then discuss how bad the rest of the Atlantic has been including the Buffalo Sabres, Montreal Canadiens, and Ottawa Senators, before discussing whether Sebastian Cossa should get playing time with Alex Lyon and Cam Talbot still out (39:48).
Finally, the Jacob Trouba saga ends, how Steve Yzerman and the Detroit Red Wings played into the story, Drury escaping the contract and paying Shesterkin, & more (including Luke Richardson being fired) (52:55) before we take your questions & comments in our Overtime segment (1:05:35) - enjoy!

| 0:19.1 | Here are your hosts, Ryan Hanna, Brad Criscoe, and Evan Lopsinger. |
| 0:27.6 | So just behind the camera in the studio is this door that goes into like a storage area in my house. |
| 0:37.0 | It's about chest height or if you're Brad like a couple inches above your head. |
| 0:40.4 | And in there are all of our prospect profiles. |
| 0:43.3 | That must be it because every night while I'm editing the podcast after we record, |
| 0:47.5 | I hear like a slight knocking, which logic dictates that that's just like air pressure |
| 0:51.9 | or something. |
| 0:52.4 | But I think it's the prospect profiles. |
| 0:58.2 | It's the, it's the Mesa conversation. It's the Mertone conversation just knocking, |
| 1:02.6 | waiting to come out. And I don't know how much longer we can ignore that, guys. |
| 1:06.1 | What's it in the Simpsons? Hugo, Hugo lives in the attic. |
| 1:09.2 | There's a meme to be made here. |
| 1:13.0 | It's December 8th. |
| 1:17.1 | This feeling around the Red Wings fandom and covering this team isn't a surprise |
| 1:19.4 | from like October to now, |
| 1:21.2 | but this does feel like every December |
| 1:23.3 | or most December's as long as we've been covering this team. |
| 1:25.8 | It's not, |
| 1:30.0 | it's very prospect profiling right now. |
| 1:36.4 | If I told you the Red Wings could come out of this month at 500 from this point forward, |
