Red Wings Free Fall, Raymond and Chiarot Scrum, and Expansion - Mar. 13th, 2024

Winged Wheel Podcast - A Detroit Red Wings Podcast

It has only gotten worse for the Detroit Red Wings.

Tune in as we start by discussing the 6th consecutive loss (this time to the Buffalo Sabres) for Derek Lalonde's squad, including Lyon, Reimer, Petry, and Chiarot's rough nights, Raymond making a small impact from Kane & Fabbri, Detroit being dominated by Benson & Co., another slow, weak effort, & more (3:55). After that, an updated look at Hockeytown's playoff chances, upcoming schedule and implications with Larkin gone (16:35).

We then discuss the minor scuffle that broke out in practice between Lucas Raymond and Ben Chiarot, whether it's a good or bad thing for the team, & what to look for going forward (22:10). Then, overall thoughts on the season as a whole, whether frustration is an overreaction based on expectations for the season, & what's ahead for Steve Yzerman (Edvinsson, Johansson, Kasper, or Mazur in the future?) (32:00).

After that, a debate on the NHL expansion question, as Atlanta has jumped into the mix with Utah & other prospective locations: how many teams is too many (46:10)?

All of that & lots more before we take your questions and comments during our Overtime segment (1:01:55) - enjoy!
