About this listen

Steve Yzerman has spoken as NHL Free Agency Frenzy has come to a close...but does that mean the Detroit Red Wings are done making moves?

Tune in as we discuss what Steve Yzerman told the media about not getting a chance to pitch free agents like Marner or Ehlers to come to Hockeytown, the Detroit Red Wings' interest in Marchment, Arvidsson, and others, who could step into the top 6 alongside Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, Marco Kasper, Patrick Kane, and Alex DeBrincat (Soderblom or Berggen, or trade for Rust or Rakell?), whether a trade is the best route (Bowen Byram? Rasmus Andersson? Erik Karlsson?) to get a top 4 defenseman alongside Mortiz Seider, Simon Edvinsson, and Albert Johansson, how much of a difference the John Gibson & Cam Talbot tandem can make, & more. Also, Christian Fischer's retirement from the NHL (4:25)!

After that, we take a look at potential 2026 NHL free agents, including Connor McDavid, Kirill Kaprizov, Kyle Connor, Jack Eichel, & many more big names and whether they could potentially be targets for Steve Yzerman & the Detroit Red Wings (plus notes on Mason McTavish, Nikolaj Ehlers, and Orlov) (35:10) before jumping into the new agreement between the NHL & NHLPA, and what the updated CBA has in store for the league's rules (45:25).

All of that & plenty more before we take your questions and comments in our Overtime segment (1:09:50) - enjoy!
