The boys make a big announcement for fall fun - and the impossible happened at the Pizza, Pizza headquarters with Steve Yzerman's 'promotion' out of the GM role and what it might signal for Wings fans.

Ever feel like your favorite team is stuck in a rut? 😩 Let's talk about why the Redwings captain allegedly asked for a trade.

As Detroit fans, we’re all feeling the same frustration. The Wings seem to be acquiring and hanging on to players who just aren’t fitting a playoff caliber profile. It’s tough to watch when you know changes need to be made.

Maybe it’s time to reboot the rebuild - but first, how many clubs will make Larkin's exception list for a deal to be done? Can the Wings get value back for him? Will Yzerman hang on to Larkin for lack of a good return or stubbornness?

Should we keep the faith? Does Steve need to go?

and...who predicted the Knicks would be up 2-0 going into the Garden? Jared has receipts!
