With the 2025 NHL Entry Draft almost here, it's time to do one last Mock and a Detroit Red Wings roundtable featuring Max Bultman of the Athletic Detroit and Prashanth Iyer!
Tune in as we start by going through a 5 man, 2025 NHL 1st round mock draft (picks below), including who we would pick if we were Steve Yzerman adding the next prospect to Hockeytown's pipeline: a forward to add to the core of Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, Marco Kasper, Alex DeBrincat, and Patrick Kane? A defenseman to help Moritz Seider, Simon Edvinsson, Axel Sandin Pellikka, and Albert Johansson? (5:00)
Plus, our Detroit Red Wings roundtable as we approach NHL Free Agency and a big offseason for Steve Yzerman (55:35), and reactions to surprising NHL trades (including Peterka to the Utah Mammoth, Evander Kane to the Canucks, and Zegras to the Flyers) (1:11:15).
All of that & plenty more before we take your questions and comments in our Overtime segment (1:25:10) - enjoy!
