Tune in as we discuss what would need to happen for the Red Wings to contend with the likes of Montreal and Ottawa for a wild card spot, starting with the goalies in John Gibson, Cam Talbot, and Sebastian Cossa, before going over how Moritz Seider, Simon Edvinsson, Albert Johansson, Jacob Bernard-Docker, Erik Gustafsson, Ben Chiarot (and even an unlikely Axel Sandin Pellikka) would help the defense improve.
After that, the forwards including another Marco Kasper season, Lucas Raymond’s ceiling, Dylan Larkin alongside Alex DeBrincat, Andrew Copp, Patrick Kane, Jonatan Berggren and Elmer Soderblom, potentially one of Nate Danielson or Carter Mazur to join the top 6, J.T. Compher improving, the Todd McLellan effect in Hockeytown, what Yzerman should do at the trade deadline (Karlsson, Rust, or Rakell?), and more.
Next, NHL news in a shockingly decentralized NHL Draft continuing next season and how Gary Bettman & Co. should improve it before we take your questions and comments in our Overtime segment – enjoy!
