It's been a busy and newsworthy offseason for the Detroit Red Wings, who have seemed to get in their own way one time after another since the 2025-26 season ended. With the Red Wings in the midst of training camp, Free Press beat writer Helene St. James joins the show to discuss the Wings' wild year. Why did Steve Yzerman not work out with the Wings? And what made owner Chris Ilitch wait so long to make a decision? Plus, Helene makes the case for why tanking again is an absolute non-starter for the Wings.
