Description

The Detroit Red Wings are officially out of the playoff race — and in this episode of Red Wings Rant, we’re pointing the finger at Steve Yzerman’s 2023 free agency decisions. We dig into why Vladimir Tarasenko and Justin Holl didn’t live up to expectations and how those signings may have cost the Wings a chance at postseason hockey. Meanwhile, the Montreal Canadiens just signed Ivan Demidov, continuing their rebuild with purpose and precision. We compare where Montreal is heading versus where Detroit should be, and ask the tough question: what will it take for the Red Wings to build a contender the right way?
