It’s rather ironic that just 363 days ago, I wrote an article in response to a Detroit Red Wings beat writer suggesting that Detroit should do everything in it’s power to get Steve Yzerman back to be their General Manager. After an even more disappointing season than 2015-16 for the Red Wings, the story has come up again via Deadspin. This time around, there’s a little bit more evidence to support Tampa’s case.
If you spent enough time drinking beers in Detroit since Stevie Y skipped town, you’ve heard the rumor that Ilitch wanted Holland to move upstairs so Yzerman could be GM.
