    Pretty funny how they created two podcasts that I have a really hard time arguing that the OG one is better then the CJ show and agent provocateur

    When the siren was going off towards the end of the episode i thought Yzerman was gonna say "well here comes my ride"

    This is so cool! I listen to a lot of SDPN content but this may be the best thing you've put out yet. Love hearing the background of Yzerman getting into management.

    Lot of haters have been silenced regarding the Yzerplan the past few weeks. Man it feels good

  12. Justin Koster

    Of all places for yzerman to do a rare interview. I bet Adam wishes a leafs great would come back and be the GM but Ballard exiled all of them. PLEASE STEVE SIGN LARKIN

    Yzerman is literally the most beloved person in Detroit. I don't think there's anyone else in the world I'd have rather saw on here. Thank you guys, fantastic interview

    Love these episodes with the GMs. So insightful and great to hear different sides of the game you don't hear and/or don't think about.

    Mr Walsh, a good video with Mr Yzerman. Prior to Mr Yzerman's success and being selected 4th overall in 1983 by Detroit, The Colorado Rockies had traded their First round picks of 1981, 1982, and 1983. The 1981 first round pick was traded June 10, 1981, and they moved back wards from 3rd to 5th; 1982 first round pick was the trade with Boston and that was made in July 21, 1981 dropping the Rockies back to number 18; The Isles traded with the Rockies in October 1, 1981 for Bob Lorimer and Dave Cameron and gave up their first round pick; Carpenter is selected 3rd overall/Francis is selected 4th in 1981, Kluzak is selected 1st overall; and Lafontaine is selected 3rd overall (Rockies/NJD gets Lorimer and Cameron) and Yzerman goes 4th to Detroit; Seeing as Adam is a NJD fan, I just wanted to mention these trades.

    Being from the Detroit area, seeing the transformation of from the Darkness of Harkness era to seeing the Wings win four Stanley Cups, Steve Yzerman was what made the Wings great. I followed him and became Tampa fan, returning to watch the Wings this season. I still expect them to be two years away but, under the Yzerplan, it's been a great ride this year.

    What u see is what u get with Mr. Yzerman and man are we fortunate to have a person Like this leading the red wings and such a fine example for the state of Michigan…

    This is great! Love hearing him so plainly go over things. Great player, GM and person and that carries a long way.

    So awesome to get to hear from Stevie Y. He doesn’t have much media availability during the season so I really appreciate this chance to hear him in such a laid back environment. My respect for him was already high, but even higher now. Just such an awesome, intelligent, personable guy

    Loved the episode as always, really glad you guys were able to get him on!

    what in the actual hell how did you get Yzerman!! So pumped for this episode!!
