  2. Danielson Sent Down and Yzerman's Potential Trade Targets - Jan. 7th, 2026

    Danielson Sent Down and Yzerman's Potential Trade Targets - Jan. 7th, 2026

    This Detroit Red Wings podcast recaps Monday's 4-2 win over Ottawa, a game Detroit stole despite being outplayed. Also, Detroit Red Wings news and analysis on Nate Danielson's assignment to Grand Rapids, plus early NHL trade deadline rumblings. The Red Wings escaped Ottawa with two crucial Atlantic Division points thanks to John Gibson's stellar 34-save performance and opportunistic scoring from Andrew Copp, Dylan Larkin, James van Riemsdyk, and Lucas Raymond's sick goal. While Detroit looked disjointed with their new line combinations, they capitalized when it mattered most against Ottawa's struggling goaltending. Gibson continues proving he can steal games even when the team doesn't play well in front of him, answering questions about his ability to perform under pressure. Copp's breakaway goal showcased his remarkable turnaround from early season struggles, while JVR continued to excel, his veteran presence in front of the net set up Larkin's 22nd goal of the season on a beautiful power play sequence. RED WINGS BEAT SENATORS (4:45) Detroit wins ugly but wins nonetheless, outshot 37-21 but getting stellar goaltending from John Gibson and timely scoring. LINEUP CHANGES (13:55) New line combinations looked disjointed but Todd McLellan's roster shakeup continues taking shape. DANIELSON TO GRAND RAPIDS (21:45) Nate Danielson heads back to the Griffins while John Leonard remains with the big club. TRADE RUMORS DISCUSSION (26:20) Early deadline rumblings around the league and potential fits for Steve Yzerman's roster as trade season heats up - is Rasmus Andersson a fit to help Sandin-Pellikka on the right? WORLD JUNIORS RECAP (44:55) Updates on Red Wings prospects competing at the tournament, with Eddie Genborg winning gold with Sweden. GRIFFINS AND OLYMPICS NEWS (50:40) Grand Rapids updates as Shai Buium returns to action plus Tralmaks Olympic roster news. OVERTIME (52:15) Listener questions and mailbag segment wrapping up the episode.

Also, McLellan's new-look lineup, including John Leonard called back up from the Grand Rapids Griffins, what to make of Finnie, Nate Danielson, and Axel Sandin-Pellikka, whether Marco Kasper and Elmer Soderblom can shake things up with Larkin, and plenty more (17:55).

    Year of McLellan and Gibson's Resurgence ft. Max Bultman - Dec. 28th, 2025

    WWP NIGHT w/ the GRAND RAPIDS GRIFFINS TICKETS (with Limited Edition Signed Puck): https://griffinshockey.com/wwp 2025 has been the Year of Todd McLellan for the Detroit Red Wings and Hockeytown fans. Tune in (as we're joined by Max Bultman of The Athletic Detroit) as we begin by recapping Detroit's electric comeback win against Mikko Rantanen and the Dallas Stars, including John Gibson's 8th straight win, James van Riesmdyk's redemption and unbelievable pass, Dylan Larkin's multi-goal heroics, Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider continuing to rack up points, strong play from Michael Rasmussen, Edvinsson & Finnie contributing, & more (4:30). After that, the Red Wings' ugly loss to Brind'Amour and the Carolina Hurricanes, including Rasmussen and Copp chipping in (from Sandin-Pellikka & Leonard) and not much else going Steve Yzerman's squad's way (13:50). We then jump into the Red Wings' 5v5 scoring questions: has the top line with Larkin, Raymond, and Finnie been stagnant? Will putting Marco Kasper in that spot solve two issues? How much has the team been relying on Patrick Kane, Alex DeBrincat, and Andrew Copp? (36:05) Next, John Gibson's redemption in net ahead of Cam Talbot and with Sebastian Cossa making waves (46:20), as well as a look at Justin Faulk as a potential trade target for Steve Yzerman and the Detroit Red Wings to bolster the blue line behind Seider, Edvinsson, Sandin-Pellikka, and Chiarot (53:20). After that, a look at Red Wings prospects at the World Juniors (Carter Bear, Eddie Genbord, Max Plante, Michal Pradel, Michal Svrcek) & Dan Watson's Grand Rapids Griffins setting AHL records with Sebastian Cossa & Co. leading the way (1:02:45).

    WWP NIGHT w/ the GRAND RAPIDS GRIFFINS TICKETS ON SALE NOW: https://griffinshockey.com/wwp It's Moritz Seider's world, we're just living in it.

We then take a look at Detroit's standings in the Atlantic division and the road ahead for Steve Yzerman's team (23:00). After that, we dive into the numbers behind Moritz Seider's superstar-level season, how he's surpassed even Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar in some metrics, how Simon Edvinsson has helped free up his game, and his candidacy for the Norris and Hart Trophies (28:45).

    Berggren Out, Detroit's December, & Red Wings' Needs ft. Prashanth Iyer - Dec. 18th, 2025

    The Detroit Red Wings have already had their best December in a decade, and the month is only halfway over... Tune in as we start by recapping Detroit's win over Ilya Sorokin and the New York Islanders, including Alex DeBrincat's heroics and league-leading goal pace, Lucas Raymond's 3 assists, Moritz Seider continuing his award-worthy season, and Axel Sandin-Pellikka's offensive skills on display as John Gibson wins his 6th straight start (4:10). Next, Dylan Larkin & Co. fall to the Utah Mammoth as Cam Talbot, Simon Edvinsson, and more Red Wings across the board struggled, and Todd McLellan's squad failed to execute without the likes of Patrick Kane (though Finnie & Grand Rapids Griffins star John Leonard linked up for a goal) (14:45). Also, the amazing pace in Hockeytown compared to previous years & what lies ahead for the rest of 2025. After that, we discuss Jonatan Berggren being lost to the St. Louis Blues via waivers, his request to Steve Yzerman to find him a fresh start, and the failure of the 2018 Red Wings Draft Class by Ken Holland & Tyler Wright (Zadina, Veleno, Berggren, etc.) (29:10). We then are joined by Prashanth Iyer to go over the ramifications of Steve Yzerman and the Detroit Red Wings not trading for Quinn Hughes, what's needed to make the most of Dylan Larkin, Alex DeBrincat, Lucas Raymond, Moritz Seider, Simon Edvinsson, Nate Danielson, Marco Kasper, Axel Sandin-Pellikka, Sebastian Cossa, Trey Augustine, & the rest of Detroit's future. Also, Prashanth's campaign for Moritz Seider to not only get Norris Trophy votes, but also Hart Trophy votes (41:10).

    Gibson and DeBrincat on Fire, and Hughes Trade Fallout - Dec. 14th, 2025

    The Quinn Hughes saga is over, and once again he is not joining the Detroit Red Wings. On a happier note, we open by recapping Detroit's last two games of their road trip, including a tough loss to an unreal Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers (including Simon Edvinsson scoring after suiting up unexpectedly) (5:20), before jumping into the Red Wings and their dominant win over the Connor Bedard-less Chicago Blackhawks, including Patrick Kane and Alex DeBrincat putting on a show, Emmitt Finnie benefitting from Axel Sandin-Pellikka's offensive moves, another John Gibson shutout, and lots more (8:45). After that, a discussion on DeBrincat's star season as he's been on fire alongside "Showtime" Patrick Kane and Andrew Copp, providing strong scoring support behind Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond on the 1st line, as well as John Gibson's recent strong streak over the past 5 games, what it could mean for the Detroit Red Wings and their playoff chances, the upcoming month of December, & plenty more (15:50). Next, Quinn Hughes being traded to the Minnesota wild for Marco Rossi, Liam Ohgren, a 2026 1st round pick, and Zeev Buium: our analysis on the deal, the risk Bill Guerin is taking, how Jim Rutherford did compared to expectations, Steve Yzerman and the Detroit Red Wings missing out on adding Quinn Hughes to Moritz Seider's side, what the equivalent deal may have been, and whether it would've been worth giving up Simon Edvinsson, Nate Danielson or Marco Kasper, Carter Bear, and maybe more in the trade (28:15). Finally, our thoughts on the Skinner for Jarry trade in Edmonton, and how this affects McDavid & Draisaitl's Cup chances (57:25).
