Detroit Red Wings hockey is BACK (even if it's just the preseason).

Tune in as we discuss the opening game of Hockeytown's preseason, including Nate Danielson's goal & impressive play in his debut, his chances of making the Red Wings, and what Lalonde & Yzerman have planned for him (5:50). Next, we analyze the impact that Alex DeBrincat (next to Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond) and Shayne Gostisbehere (next to Moritz Seider) already have had for Detroit, especially on the power play (16:55). Also, Michael Rasmussen's return, Jonatan Berggren vying for a roster spot, Simon Edvinsson, William Wallinder, & more preseason storylines (21:50).

We then jump into our Central Division Preview, as we analyze & project the season ahead for Connor Bedard & the Chicago Blackhawks, the Arizona Coyotes, Winnipeg Jets, St. Louis Blues, Nashville Predators, Minnesota Wild, Dallas Stars, & Colorado Avalanche (29:15).

Finally, we're joined by PWHL Boston player Loren Gabel, who talks to us about being a professional women's hockey player, the PHWHPA & PHF dissolving and forming the new league, life of a professional athlete, & lots more (46:25).

All of that & lots more before we take your questions and comments during Overtime (1:06:05) - enjoy!
