The Detroit Red Wings head into the pre-Sweden trip break with 3 of 4 points, but it wasn’t smooth sailing along the way.
After some due congratulations to Max Bultman & Dylan Larkin (3:20), tune in as we cover Detroit’s OT loss to Cole Caufield & the Montreal Canadiens, including a massive mistake from James Reimer, a slumping team with stars like Dylan Larkin, Alex DeBrincat, Moritz Seider, & Jake Walman not performing, Fischer & Compher contributing, & more (4:30).
Next, the Red Wings finding a way to beat the Columbus Blue Jackets, including Lucas Raymond’s Datsyukian goal, Robby Fabbri’s big night, Alex DeBrincat breaking his cold streak, Sprong & Walman joining in, a poor night in Detroit’s own zone for Ville Husso, Jeff Petry, and defense overall, & more on Derek Lalonde’s squad (14:55). After that, a conversation on whether Simon Edvinsson should be called up from the AHL’s Grand Rapids Griffins, thoughts on benching Shayne Gostisbehere, Alex Lyon & when he’ll get in, Fischer & Klim Kostin appreciation, & more on Steve Yzerman’s rebuilding team (20:30).
Next up, the Edmonton Oilers fired head coach Jay Woodcroft and brough in Connor McDavid’s former coach Kris Knoblauch – what does this mean for McDavid, Draisaitl, Ken Holland, & Jeff Jackson? Is the Oilers season shot? How is Holland still in his GM position (33:05)?

LFG
Yea im over the jeff petry experiment. He needs to be relegated to the press box and edvinsson brought it
Does anyone play EFT
Bring mcdaddy to his new home in det. Wont need to worry about anything except carrying our team HALF the time 🙂
WWP podcast kids' table!
Good news: Average age is down
Bad news: Evan can't make billionaire deals on his phone this episode
Im done with the Petry and Fabbri stuff. Get them out and bring in who every fan has been waiting on. Our prospects!!!!!
The product on the ice isnt worth the price of a ticket plenty of times. Bring up the prospects for God sake
I confuse is Ed in or not
Fabbri reinvigorates yet again. The guy gives it his all, hope his knees last.
Seider has had some loopy plays, falling down, losing and edge, or puck going over his stick.
I think they should trade Petry to the Tigers.
"Did you know Petrys Dad played for the tigers?" … What Bally sports says when he screws up 🪛 😂
Heavy participation from Evan was a nice change of pace. Nice episode.
Ken Holland getting closer to trading McDavid to Detroit! (I'm clearly trolling)
I'll not be shamed for being a Brad Krysko guy
When will the NHL stop giving Holland a pass for reaping the benefits of Jimmy D. Still hoping Drai wants out and Holland is there to botch a deal.
even after the Reimer penalty i'm still more unimpressed with Husso.
That's a lie, there never is another voice. When Brad is here, Evan is a functional mute. 😛
I think Reimer deserves more starts or Lyon needs to be an option. Detroit isn't gonna keep scoring 5 plus goals a game to keep bailing Husso out and his GA streak isn't improving; I know they have that work load expectation for him but like you guys said we need some shake ups and newer looks. I sometimes wondered if Lalonde's system was too simple and that's why Detroit is being figured out and regressing against better competition, but he is a much needed piece of this team succeeding. GR isn't looking great but I believe it's time for some guys to get some looks. Idk if you do it during this trip against division rivals but hopefully soon. My wandering mind would love to pick Yzerman's brain right now and see what he's thinking just to see how the teams performances from the hot streak to the bad streak has affected his thought process so far; probably not much but still food for thought.
Unfortunate that #48, #85 and #77 didn’t go on Sweden trip.
My friends. I am sorry to inform you but it is time to re-attempt Chiarot-Seider
Reimer was otherwise pretty good in the Montreal game…unlike the rest of the team. If that's Husso in net then there'd be no stick holding because there'd be no OT…because Husso would've surely let in 4+ in regulation. Reimer stole a point for Detroit imo, so it's tough to be too hard on him.
Ken Holland is destroying another team. HOF Fraud.
Hello.
We can see how defenseman need more time and the AHL could develop a good team…
The system is being taught at both places. It’s like next year we rock?
The Edmonton situation: Oilers fans, don't say we didn't warn you.
Ken Holland is old school GM, you can’t buy your way into Stanley cup anymore
Husso has been shaky, Optimus Reim cost us against Montreal, how much longer until we get Lyon in net?
Mcdavid to the wings for a goalie? 😅
buffalo is going to drop off soon, go on a sad losing streak, they do not have anything in that roster that will win consistent hockey games.
