YZERMAN TO EISERMAN: DETROIT’S DRAFT STRATEGY – Winged Wheel Podcast – May 12th, 2024



Steve Yzerman has some interesting choices to make this summer for the Detroit Red Wings.

Tune in as we discuss the ideal draft strategy for Hockeytown as they draft 15th overall and look to add to their core – who would be the best help for Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, Moritz Seider, Alex DeBrincat, Simon Edvinsson, & Detroit’s other key players? Is it best player available or a high end forward like Eiserman or Catton (3:25)?

Next, updates on the Toledo Walleye, Raymond, Lyon, & Augustine at the World Championships, and Nate Danielson with the Portland Winterhawks (22:30) before we get into our 2024 NHL Draft Prospect Profile on Cole Eiserman: goal-scoring dynamo from the USNTDP (25:45).

After that, NHL news including Keefe being fired, Shanahan staying, and what’s next for Mitch Marner, the Stanley Cup Playoffs including Tkachuk vs. Pastrnak, Rangers dominating the Hurricanes, and McDavid’s task against the Canucks (40:15), PLUS the Utah team names (1:00:45) & LOTS more before we take your questions and comments during our Overtime segment (1:04:30) – enjoy!

  1. * Raymond was a defacto type, they were excited about a right handed RW being available. Draper even said so later.

    Draft wise Detroit needs WINGERS in their system with the graduation of Berggren, yet SY seems to be leaning to adding Dmen who are BPA who fall to them. The 2nd round in 2023 was a total mystery why SY passed on all the best available wingers available for the likes of Brady Cleveland who is a huge project with limited upside.

  2. Haha Bobblehead Brad. So you think they need more offence? Looking at the stats, 9 out of 10 experts disagree. Steve probably knows how to assemble a team.

  3. Marner to Detroit actually kinda makes sense. I normally wouldn't entertain the idea but you guys did so…..
    Marner is the Toronto kid, living his dream playing for his home town leafs, if he's forced out, why not go to the direct rival?? At this point revenge would be on marners mind. It's a great hockey market without the noise of Toronto and he'd still be very close to home.

  4. Brad Ken Holland tried to do exactly what you are saying and shooting for the fences for a high scoring winger, instead of drafting a sure nhl right shot defenseman which we desperately needed instead he went for that guy that was going to fill everyone's net with pucks named Zadina. How did that workout?
