The Detroit Red Wings can't string together solid games, and Todd McLellan is just about done with it.
Tune in as we open by discussing the New Jersey Devils game, including Compher's hit on Hischier and fight vs. Noesen, Chiarot's butt-end on Nemec, Siegenthaler's blindside on Raymond, Hamonic's rough game, Larkin, DeBrincat, Seider, Patrick Kane, & other performances with Edvinsson out, & more (4:25).
Next, the brutal loss to Barry Trotz' Nashville Predators, including miscues from just about the entire team, Gustafsson and Hamonic on defense, how the team's play affects Finnie, Sandin-Pellikka, Danielson, Kasper ), & other young players, & more as Steve Yzerman's squad struggled on home ice, plus what's wrong with this team from its best players down to its depth in guys (like Copp, Compher, Johansson, etc.) (13:10).
We then discuss whether Steve Yzerman should go all out for a guy like Quinn Hughes & how much that would fix (and the cost of acquisition), or what other depth moves would be needed to shore up the team (39:45).
All of that & lots more before we take your questions and comments in our Overtime segment (1:00:40) - enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving!
