Detroit Red Wings have a new coach, but how many new players will they have?

The “Yzerplan” did get a new face
Steve Yzerman described a list of players that would be a good fit for the Detroit Red Wings as “beautiful,” and that was before it included free agents rendered unrestricted because they did not get a qualifying offer from their prior employers.

Jeff Blashill spoke with appreciation about his departure from the Detroit Red Wings after 10 years with the organization.
