Max Bultman of The Athletic Detroit to take advantage of the downtime!

Can Hockeytown's core be solidified with more contracts like Dylan Larkin, Moritz Seider, and Lucas Raymond's? (3:55) We then discuss the earlier implementation of the Stanley Cup Playoffs salary cap and whether that means teams like Florida or Vegas would have to shed cap - could someone like Evan Rodrigues be on Steve Yzerman's radar to add to McLellan's Detroit Red Wings?
