Detroit Drafts 9th - Yzerman's Options and Lottery Recap ft. Max Bultman - May 10th, 2023 - a podcast by Winged Wheel Podcast

The NHL Draft lottery is over, and no, the Detroit Red Wings didn't land a spot to pick Connor Bedard, Adam Fantilli, Matvei Michkov, Will Smith, or Leo Carlsson (probably). BUT, they didn't move down.

Tune in as we discuss the NHL Draft Lottery results, including thoughts on the Chicago Blackhawks and whether they "deserved" the 1st overall pick, what Steve Yzerman & the Red Wings have to do now that they have never received the lottery luck they desperately wanted, feelings on the available pool of players, & more (4:20).

We're joined by Max Bultman to further discuss the NHL Draft class, give overall thoughts on the players available, what's next in the "Yzerplan", how the likes of Larkin, Seider, Raymond, Veleno, & others have to lead an improved Hockeytown, & plenty more (17:30).

Next, we go over some of the potential prospects at picks 9 & 17, including Ryan Leonard, Dalibor Dvorsky, Oliver Moore, Zach Benson, Gabe Perreault, Nate Danielson, Colby Barlow, & others. Also, whether a trade from either pick is possible & other potential strategies (49:50).

Finally, some NHL & Red Wings news (Walman out of the IIHF World Championships, Carter Mazur shining), plus some podcast updates (1:06:50) before we take your questions during Overtime (1:09:25) - enjoy!
