Does Yzerman Buy or Sell? Outdoor Robbery and DeBrincat Dominance - Mar. 2nd, 2025

Heartbreak in Ohio...we should have known. Tune in as we start by covering the first of two Detroit Red Wings losses to the Columbus Blue Jackets, including a tough performance from Dylan Larkin and Todd McLellan's words after, Alex DeBrincat still showing up, a rough night for Cam Talbot, & more (4:00) before we jump into the Stadium Series game at Ohio Stadium: a touching tribute to Johnny Gaudreau, terrible coverage to start the game from ESPN, DeBrincat scoring yet again, Gustafsson, Edvinsson, Holl, and Johansson missing coverage, Elmer Soderblom hurt, Ben Chiarot's big hit, Patrick Kane and Alex Debrincat leading the comeback, a brutal missed call by the referees on a high-stick by Danforth on Simon Edvinsson, and LOTS more on the night (8:40). Next, discussion on the Stanley Cup Playoff race implications for Steve Yzerman's team, and whether Hockeytown will be a buyer, seller (Alex Lyon? Vladimir Tarasenko?), or neither at the upcoming NHL Trade Deadline because of these two losses (26:50). After that, a discussion on just how great Alex "The Cat" DeBrincat has been all season, & how important his production is alongside Lucas Raymond, Moritz Seider, Dylan Larkin, Marco Kasper, & others (44:15). Finally, NHL news including the Seth Jones - Spencer Knight trade as Bedard's teammate heads to Florida, Nyquist & other moves around the league, & whether J.J. Peterka would be a worthwhile trade target for Steve Yzerman as fans consider him and popular targets like Mikko Rantanen & Mitch Marner (50:10).
