The Latest with Elliotte Friedman: Tavares Reaches 1000 + Has Lyon Earned Detroit's Starting Job?

Jeff and Elliotte kick off the show discussing the suspensions handed out yesterday as Red Wings forward David Perron was disciplined six games, while Blue Jackets defenceman Erik Gudbranson received just one. Next, the pair chat about the fan reaction on Long Island as John Tavares notched his 10000th career NHL point, before getting into the Red Wings' 0-3 record since Patrick Kane's debut and Alex Lyon's case for Detroit's starting job. To wrap up, Jeff and Elliotte break down last night’s back-and forth contest between the Flames and Avalanche, Mikko Rantanen’s postgame comments, and the Coyotes' goaltending situation.
