Episode Details

Moritz Seider just won the Rod Langway Award for best defensive defenseman, beating out elite competition including Jaccob Slavin — a nod to the often-overlooked shutdown talent. Named after the last pure defensive defenseman to win the Norris Trophy, this award shines a spotlight on players like Seider, whose game thrives on responsibility, physicality, and relentless stamina. His coach calls him a “diesel engine” who never misses a shift — and he’s been flawless since entering the league, posting a career-high 60 points while leading Detroit in plus-minus. Seen as a natural leader and future captain, Seider isn’t just a wall in front of the net — he’s a cornerstone, making the Red Wings a far stronger team when he’s on the ice.
