      I was just thinking about this. At some point he's probably surpassed Gordie as the greatest Red Wing of all time. Living legend. Once he wins a cup here as a GM, he'll move into deity territory.

    Off the top of my head, Yzerman seems to be the most talkative (that isn't talking about nothing) former player in an executive position in my opinion. I'm not quite done the episode as I'm typing this, but this has been one of my favourite interviews from Agent Provocateur yet!

    This was very cool to listen to. I joined the military the year Steviee Y was drafted and retired the same year he retired from playing. I loved watching him evolve into the Hall of Famer he is and continues to be. It's always interesting to hear about the business side of things, but even more so to hear the human side of someone's experiences. He just seems like such a neat person and could teach a lot of people some very valuable leadership lessons outside of hockey. Lead by example, listen to other opinions, don't be afraid to surround yourself with people that are more knowledgeable about something than you, treat people honestly and with respect, and ultimately negotiate conflicts from a win-win position when you can.

    Mr Walsh, a good video with Mr Yzerman. Prior to Mr Yzerman's success and being selected 4th overall in 1983 by Detroit, The Colorado Rockies had traded their First round picks of 1981, 1982, and 1983. The 1981 first round pick was traded June 10, 1981, and they moved back wards from 3rd to 5th; 1982 first round pick was the trade with Boston and that was made in July 21, 1981 dropping the Rockies back to number 18; The Isles traded with the Rockies in October 1, 1981 for Bob Lorimer and Dave Cameron and gave up their first round pick; Carpenter is selected 3rd overall/Francis is selected 4th in 1981, Kluzak is selected 1st overall; and Lafontaine is selected 3rd overall (Rockies/NJD gets Lorimer and Cameron) and Yzerman goes 4th to Detroit; Seeing as Adam is a NJD fan, I just wanted to mention these trades.

      @JarradBruessel32 Před rokem

      Well he had time. He said there are times where you aren't doing anything as a gm and this was one of those times. The wings are pretty healthy, he is only working on signing larkin and bertuzzi right now or trading bertuzzi, and deciding on next years goaltending because we have 3 free agent goalies I believe. Idk if he holds onto hellberg or not. Hellberg is older. Ned has been in a funk the last 3 games for GR but he took a hit to the head at the start of the first game and has been just off since. Before that he was doing really good in GR and was carrying them. There isn't much on his plate. Detroit isn't looking to buy really or sell. Just stay the course. That's all we need to do right now.

    When I was in school, I ran into him over the weekend in the gym. He was alone at the end of a long narrow hallway, and I was walking towards him from the entrance. Unable to identify him, I'm trying to size this guy up at the end of the hallway, trying to assess if he's a threat sort of thing... And I see his smaller stature, non threatening stance.. immediately consider him a weak threat. As I get to about 20 ft from him, he turns to look at me, and the thoughts that ran through my head were hilarious. First, "HFS", 2ND, This guy would murder me. 3rd, the guilt and shame for even thinking about fighting him. All encapsulated in a meager, cracked voice "hey".
