Steve Yzerman sounded pleased overall with what he was able to do with the Detroit Red Wings at the trade deadline. He added a 2023 second-round pick, a 2024 fourth-round pick, and a 2022 seventh-round pick to the rebuild. Yzerman also added a right-shot forward and left-shot defenseman to the current squad, while subtracting defensemen Nick

Jeff Blashill pointed out a truth about the Detroit Red Wings that will stand past the trade deadline; it’s also one which doesn’t bode particularly well for the last 20 games. “Monday, the deadline will be over, but we’re going to have a whole bunch of the same guys here,” he said after yet another disappointing

Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman whittled his defensive corps, unloading Troy Stecher for a seventh round pick. The 2022 selection from the Los Angeles Kings isn’t much, but the Wings had no use for Stecher anymore.

The Toronto Maple Leafs, desperate to shore up before the playoffs, are looking to a former Detroit Red Wings goaltender for help — and ditching another one.
