Episode Details

Detroit’s NHL Entry Draft just got a whole lot more intriguing — and oddly poetic — as they trade away their first-round pick to the Blues for Justin Faulk, marking the first time since Steve Yzerman took over as GM in 2019 that they skip Day 1. It’s a full-circle moment: back in 2012, Yzerman was Tampa Bay’s GM and used Detroit’s pick to draft Andrei Vasilevskiy — now a two-time Cup champ, Vezina winner, and Hall of Fame lock. Meanwhile, Detroit’s 2012 picks? Barely made it to the NHL, let alone stardom. Now, with Yzerman back in charge, the hockey world watches to see if this trade gamble pays off — or if history repeats itself.
