Summary
In a surprising report by Elliotte Friedman on Hockey Night in Canada, it is believe that Steve Yzerman has taken Tyler Bertuzzi off the NHL trade market. Tune in as we dissect this development: would this be the right move for the Red Wings? Is Detroit's playoff push worth passing up on a trade for Bertuzzi? Is this Yzerman buying time and/or driving up Bertuzzi's value? How does this affect Dylan Larkin, Moritz Seider, Lucas Raymond, & the rest of the locker room? Is a playoff series in Hockeytown realistic? All of that & more (5:40)!
We also discuss Detroit's recent games: a win over Calgary that capped off a 5 game winning streak, including another stellar Dylan Larkin performance (NHLPA Player of the Week), Tyler Bertuzzi's best game of the season, Robby Fabbri, Filip Zadina, & Pius Suter quietly doing well, Hellberg's win, & more (34:20). Also, Detroit's loss to Seattle, including a tough night from Husso, Chiarot, & Hronek, & overall tired play on a long road trip (41:40).
With Jakub Vrana called up but not slotting into the lineup, we discuss Derek Lalonde's decision to keep him out, whether he'll play in Washington, & what could happen to Vrana moving forward (potentially sent back down to Grand Rapids) (50:25).
Finally, we tackle Kyle Dubas' blockbuster trade, acquiring Ryan O'Reilly for the Toronto Maple Leafs (59:00) before we take your questions during Overtime (1:06:40) - enjoy!
