Episode description

The first day of NHL Free Agency is in the books, and the Detroit Red Wings have upgraded, but not by much.

We’re going live to break down the Day 1 action:

  • Who the Wings missed out on — including Mitch Marner, Gavrikov, K’Andre Miller, and the Florida exodus

  • Who they did sign — James Van Riemsdyk signs, Patrick Kane returns, trade for John Gibson, plus Berggren and Johansson ink new deals

  • What still needs to happen for this offseason to be a win, like targeting Ehlers

  • Potential trade targets now that big names are off the board: Barbashev, Mark Stone, Jordan Kyrou

  • And our honest reactions to drafting Carter Bear instead of making a trade

We'll share our confidence levels in Steve Yzerman pulling off something major, talk about realistic next steps, and debate what defines success for this free agency window.
