Brendan EscottHOST
And it's going to take a little bit of improvement defensively, too.
Brendan EscottHOST
I mean, that's where all players can stand to improve for the most part, unless you're, you know, a Nick Lidstrom kind of a thing.
Brendan EscottHOST
Then you're pretty good defensively.
Brendan EscottHOST
But you know what I mean? When you're trying to find your way in the league, to me, the quickest way you earn trust from your coach is how you're playing on the defensive side of the puck.
Matt SekeresHOST
How many captains have the Detroit Red Wings had since Yzerman, and who are they?
Jeff MarekGUEST
Uh, Nick Lidstrom is the obvious one.
Jeff MarekGUEST
I'm going to say that there has been three.
Matt SekeresHOST
Lidstrom is correct.
Sid SeixeiroHOST
They didn't win with, with these guys in the front office.
Sid SeixeiroHOST
Nick Lidstrom is your VP of hockey ops.
Jeff AzzopardiHOST
Mm.
Sid SeixeiroHOST
Horkoff's the assistant GM, Shawn Horkoff.
Lori BennettGUEST
You know, if everyone who wins the Norris, they have a partner that, that completes them, right? So-
Matt DrakeHOST
It's only Lidstrom that, that didn't need one, right?
Lori BennettGUEST
Uh, well, yeah.
Matt DrakeHOST
[laughs]
Lori BennettGUEST
Even Lidstrom now is, you know, he's, he's on the back nine as, as they say.
Lori BennettGUEST
But-
Matt DrakeHOST
Mm
Jason GregorHOST
Yeah.
Mark SpectorGUEST
Kenny Holland, you know, um- Great players, the Russian Five, like they, Nick Lidstrom, they were just, they were the class of the league.
Mark SpectorGUEST
They were the class of the league for a quarter century.
Jason GregorHOST
Mm.
Tom OffermanHOST
Jake Matthews has been in the league since 2014.
Tom OffermanHOST
Lidstrom is an experienced player.
Tom OffermanHOST
There are guys out there that know how to play at the NFL level and have had success at the NFL level.
Tom OffermanHOST
It's a solid test for the front for the Steelers as they implement some new things.
Dan PowersHOST
Yeah.
Dan PowersHOST
The names being thrown around right now are Shawn Horcoff, who is currently the assistant GM of the team, Nick Lidstrom, and Chris Draper.
Dan PowersHOST
Uh, I bet it's gonna be Horcoff.
Dan PowersHOST
He- I, he's currently acting as GM, like, whenever they have, like- Yeah [laughs] ... league-wide phone calls right now, like Horcoff's on, on the line.
Dan PowersHOST
It's gonna be him.
Dan PowersHOST
I understand the Draper and the Lidstrom m- I mean, if Nick Lidstrom's the GM, I would be...
Dan PowersHOST
If I'm a Detroit fan, I would be...
Dan PowersHOST
That's, again, that's my favorite player in the history- Yeah ... of the National Hockey League.
Allan MitchellHOST
But I reminded you, there were times when Leon Draisaitl or one of the other players would say, "Well, now we really gotta turn it on." And I'm like, "That's not how it works.
Allan MitchellHOST
That's not how teams win." Did you ever, ever, ever hear Nick Lidstrom say, "Yeah, we've been floundering for a while, but now we're gonna play hard.
Allan MitchellHOST
We know what to do.
Allan MitchellHOST
We'll just do it now"? That's not how it works.
Adnan VirkHOST
They could look outside the organization.
Adnan VirkHOST
You know, they have some talk about VP of hockey operations, Nick Lidstrom, like Yzerman, franchise legend.
Adnan VirkHOST
Assistant GM, Shanahorkoff, Chris Draper.
Adnan VirkHOST
What do you think here, J.D.? The Wings gotta get going.
ChandlerHOST
Like, he fully deserves that contract.
ChandlerHOST
I mean, I will go as far as to say he's probably the best defenseman I've watched since probably Nick Lidstrom.
ChandlerHOST
Like, yeah, that's probably the kind of company I would put Kel McCarr in, to be honest.
ChandlerHOST
Like, he's that good.
