No matter how tough the season, nothing is better than the Detroit Red Wings beating the Chicago Blackhawks - especially in Chicago.
Tune in as we discuss how Dylan Larkin & Alex DeBrincat, looking like their vintage selves, led the Detroit Red Wings to victory over Bedard and the Hawks, including strong play from Cam Talbot, Patrick Kane, Moritz Seider (who had a cordial exchange with Bedard after a nasty high stick), Simon Edvinsson, Lucas Raymond, Jonatan Berggre & Marco Kasper gelling, Andrew Copp, Joe Veleno, & the rest of the Hockeytown squad under Derek Lalonde (4:50 ). We then talk about how Steve Yzerman's team, though struggling on defense with Gustafsson, Petry, and others, is still currently in a playoff spot (23:10 ).
After that, we visit the Seider - Edvinsson pairing usage and how it stacks up to last season, Walman, the rest of the league, & more, as well as revisiting the whole "Larkin seems a bit off" conversation - which he promptly put to rest (26:45 ).
Next, a quick discusson on whether Patrick Kane can make Team USA alongside the Tkachuk's at the 4 Nations Faceoff and our favorite Pavel Datsyuk moments as he heads into the Hockey Hall of Fame (sadly not alongside Henrik Zetterberg) (38:40 ), before jumping into NHL news including Kaprizov's Hart start, Barry Trotz's rebuild warnings in Nashville despite Stamkos & Co. just being signed, & plenty more (42:30 ) before we take your questions & comments in our Overtime segment (55:10 ) - enjoy!
