Red Wings Contracts and Prospect Timelines - Aug. 20th, 2023

As the dust from Steve Yzerman's trade for Jeff Petry settles, a lot of conversation has surrounded the "Yzerplan" and the Detroit Red Wings salary cap structure.

Tune in as we discuss how Yzerman's contract structure in Detroit is set up, and what it means for Hockeytown's future. Do the Red Wings have the core around Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, and Moritz Seider already, or does it depend on Marco Kasper, Nate Danielson, and Axel Sandin Pellikka? How do Chiarot, Copp, Compher, and others factor in? Is Walman part of Detroit's long-term future? All of that & more (3:55).

Next we discuss the realistic timelines for Detroit's top prospects (Kasper, Edvinsson, Danielson, Lombardi, Mazur, Cossa, Wallinder, Johansson, Sandin Pellikka) to reach the Red Wings, how long they might spend in the AHL with the Grand Rapids Griffins, & plenty more (30:45) before we take your questions and comments during Overtime (55:10) - enjoy!
