Winged Wheel Podcast - A Detroit Red Wings Podcast

(29:00) before jumping into a fantastic interview with Kevin Woodley of InGoal Magazine.

In a turn of tides, the Detroit Red Wings may be in trouble with what is essentially an entire 1st line missing from the roster...

Tune in as we discuss Detroit's last two games, including the 1-0 snoozefest against Carolina that saw Dylan Larkin leave the game injured (6:15), before of course discussing the Minnesota game: Ryan Reaves decks Filip Hronek with a massive hit. Was it legal? Was it clean. Who was at fault for Hronek getting hit & injured like that? How did Mo Seider, Ben Chiarot, & the rest of the Red Wings respond? How did Hellberg do in his (overshadowed) debut? All of that & more (13:20).

We also discuss Detroit's season outlook with Dylan Larkin, Tyler Bertuzzi, Jakub Vrana, Filip Hronek, and Olli Maatta all out of the lineup. Are the playoffs a pipedream? Can they stay in the mix? Do they tank for Connor Bedard (37:52)?

We're also joined by Alison Lukan of the Seattle Kraken & Too Many Men to discuss exciting times in Seattle, Matty Beniers & Shane Wright, & data-driven storytelling in hockey (47:03)!

Finally, we cover some big stories in the NHL, including potential salary cap increases negotiated with the NHLPA, scheduling changes, & Gary Bettman's infuriating line on digital board ads (1:08:00). Tune in for all of that & LOTS more - enjoy!

Happy New Year! The Detroit Red Wings wrapped up 2022 and entered 2023 with another comeback win, this time over the Ottawa Senators. Tune in as we discuss the New Year's Eve game, the previous almost-comeback against Buffalo, Elmer Soderblom and Joe Veleno's 6 game point streaks, Michael Rasmussen dominating on Dylan Larkin's wing, Lucas Raymond's great game, Hellberg's shaky win, & the Moritz Seider - Jake Walman pairing (as Ben Chiarot was moved off the Seider pair) (6:50).

Also, with Jakub Vrana, Robby Fabbri, & soon Tyler Bertuzzi (not to mention Filip Zadina) returning, Derek Lalonde has decisions to make. Will he scratch Erne, Suter, or Sundqvist? Will Soderblom be sent down? Is Nedeljkovic going to be waived in favor of Hellberg? Can Steve Yzerman drum up a trade? (31:05)

We also give our 2023 Detroit Red Wings New Year's Resolutions: what do we want to see from the Hockeytown club this year (42:10)?

Finally, an update on Connor Bedard and the World Juniors (52:30), and lots more - enjoy!

With the Thanksgiving cutoff here, we give our takes on whether we expect Detroit's playoff pace to hold, their chances of making the postseason, & what it would take for them to get there (including Vezina & Jack Adams votes) (16:45).
