Ken Kal sits down with Red Wings Executive Vice President & General Manager Steve Yzerman for a midseason conversation on the state of the Detroit Red Wings.
Interesting note in this one:
Blashill declined to comment when asked about his contract by The Athletic, but according to an NHL source, after the regular season ends, the Red Wings have seven days to pick up Blashill’s option for next year. If they don’t, he gets a $300,000 buyout and the search for his replacement begins.
Jeff Blashill won’t have to wait too long once the season ends to learn his fate.
