Prospect Pipeline & Motown Meltdown ft. Bob Kaser - Dec. 22nd, 2024

So much for holiday cheer... Tune in as we discuss the Detroit Red Wings & their two losses to a fellow bottom-feeder in Lane Hutson's Montreal Canadiens, including Simon Edvinsson being out leaving Moritz Seider and Ben Chiarot to fend for themselves (with Lagesson getting his first game), Talbot & Lyon not saving the day per usual, Patrick Kane, Joe Veleno, Michael Rasmussen, & Tyler Motte contributing, terrible special teams, and an altogether brutal weekend for Derek Lalonde's squad (6:30). After that, a look at where this team is at as we head into our Christmas break, including Dylan Larkin's scoring slump, how the team is performing behind Lucas Raymond, Alex DeBrincat & Co., & whether the tank for Hagens, Schaefer, Martone, Misa, etc. is truly on for Steve Yzerman's Hockeytown team (20:35). Next, a conversation with Bob Kaser, voice of the AHL Grand Rapids Griffins, to talk some positivity: Red Wings pipeline in Sebastian Cossa, Nate Danielson, Maroc Kasper, Jonatan Berggren, Amadeus Lombardi, Wallinder, Carter Mazur, & plenty more (32:20). After that, Red Wings news including John Keating calling it an incredible career, Trey Augustine, Max Plante, Jesse Kiiskinen, and Axel Sandin Pellikka at the World Juniors as well as a conversation about whether Steve Yzerman needs to make a coaching change in Derek Lalonde or a trade with a team like Buffalo (Cozens? Byram?) (1:06:30). Finally, NHL NHL including Matt Rempe's high hit (1:13:30) before we take your questions & comments in our Overtime segment (1:20:55) - enjoy!
