Ikr! Just shows his true character and a testament to who he is and his professionalism.. A-1 quality guy all around!.. a guy like Stevie you can't help but think that he must be an awesome family man..
Amen.. Yzerman doesn't dodge questions. If he can answer without revealing strategy, he does so. If he can't, he says so. Communication is huge for us fans.
@@lg8182 LOL. Daniella Bruce works for the Red Wings media. Besides, Yzerman does plenty of pressers too and operates those in the same way. It's Steve Yzerman. He's always been a straight shooter.
Guys, I love Stevie Y, but you can't say he doesn't dodge questions cuz he does. All the time. Hell, look back to the draft a month ago. Someone asked him where he was in the rebuild and his response was "well, I've been here 3 years, so I guess I would say we're in year 4 of the rebuild". If that's not a dodge, nothing is.
I'm really excited for the new season! Both Detroit and G.R. will be really cool to watch all season! I hope alot of the younger players in Detroit like Zadina and Veleno find their games with the help of Derek Lalonde. It's a make it or break it season especially for Filip Zadina. Also, with the quality defensive-style defensemen that we're added during free agency, i'm hoping Filip Hronek will improve his offensive game as well to solidify as Detroit's #2 RD pair below Mo Seider. I think it will be a lot of fun to watch all players and prospects do this upcoming season, we are definitely blessed to have Steve Yzerman at the helm of this ideal organization, he has done an amazing job!!! We're so lucky and blessed to have him home we're he belongs! Can't wait for the season to start!❤️
Man would I like to have a chat with Steve Yzerman about the days with Probert, McCrimmon, Chiasson, Sheppard, Burr and everybody. I really wonder how the team spirit was back then.
Fantastic interview thank you everyone!! Yep Im crushing on Daniella she’s a beautiful woman! But more than that, as stated by others, she does a fantastic job interviewing people and bringing out the interesting aspects of a person. And she gas a lot of interesting opinions about everything, very nice. Steve is cool too. 😂 Honestly I think they’re both the BEST at what they do and im very fortunate to be a Wings fan! Steve Yzerman is without a doubt the best GM ever to grace the NHL. Watch. He set the bar very high and so did Daniella! 👍❤️
It is so nice to have him with our organization again. It’s been exciting watching some of the talent he’s brought to the Wings. Really looking forward to watching the new kids develop more and watching how the vets benefit the team.
excellent questions asked by danielle. really enjoyed this interview, it's always nice to hear from gm yzerman. i like the moves he's made and the rationale behind the moves. cheers from southern ontario 🍁
Thank you Steve for all you have done for the Redwings, I have followed you from Australia since the 90s, (it was very difficult back then), but also admired yourself, along with others like Darren McCarty and Nic Lidstrom, plus so many others, never gotten over to see a live game but always plan to try to do it in the next year or so, really great knowing you will do a great job developing this team and helping them become like you and the team was in the late 90s and 2000s.
I like that Steve is taking a patient approach to building the Red Wings for the long term instead of just trying to sign free agents to help the team in the short term. Steve did a great job in Tampa and I believe that he will in Detroit as well.
I could listen to Yzerman and Draper talk about our future depth all day. We did great at the trade and the last few drafts. We’re making the first round next year minimum ❤️ fabri back plus Seider and Raymond and Bert and larkin and our signings. We have it.
You are putting way too much faith into this roster.. Yes Perron, Copp are great players, but they are not a Mackinnon, or McDavid. It's not like they are generational talents that are superstars carrying their teams to cups. I do think we will be way better, but the Eastern Conference is completely stacked. We only got around 74 points last year, and the wildcard team had 100. I don't know if we will make the playoffs, I wouldn't even be upset, my expectation, is to fight for a playoff spot. If we make it, great, if we don't and we were very very close all season long, that's great as well. But to sit here, and say first round playoffs is a minimum is complete delusion, and you're setting yourself up for failure, and disappointment
The amazing thing i keep thinking about is that Yzerman is home as our GM. The way he building this team... Dynasty. Also... He will stay as long as he wants. This team is going to be solid for a very long time. So excites for our future.
Dynasty? Take it easy. You can't even mention that word. Wings will be better certainly, but look at the top teams next year and remember that they will be just as good or even better. Yes, the future is so much brighter, but this team still has a way to go.
I played against Stevie Y (and his brother Mike) back in 1975 at the Coquitlam Pup (Atom) Rep Easter tournament. I believe they were living in Cranbrook at the time but they played with the Kamloops rep team. Of course we didn't know who he was back then and because he was a first year Pup player he wasn't even the best player on the team. Along with Bobby Orr and Joe Sakic, Stevie Y remains my favourite NHL player of all time.
Kasper will be ready after next season... Last year on Rogle, he was given minimal roles on the team, and was playing bottom 6 minutes. Rogle and Detroit are very close, and have said Kasper will be given top 6 minutes to help him develop next year. Come back to this comment by next april, and I guarantee Kasper will be the best rookie in the SHL.
19:10 one key to the Yzerman mindset - Russian fighting spirit and drive to perfection. Another is the Swedish organization and work ethic. But most; the Canadian grit and will.
He needs to prove himself at the prospect tournament, and pre season.. If he fails to do so, he won't be in the winged wheel at the start of the season. Yzerman wants competition and dudes to prove they belong on the roster, that is how you build a powerhouse.
I had a dream last night that the Wings season started, and I was at a game, we were playing the Capitals, and I can vaguely remember seeing a score, 6-3 caps won. LOL Idk why or how i had this dream but I did.. I really hope the wings breakout and make the playoffs, but for some reason, and that dream really made me believe that we will be better than we were last year, but still bad.
I'm really excited about Detroit's future! I could see Detroit's future line-up look like this several years down the road: (2027-2028 Est:) Stanley Cup Contender Buchelnikov Larkin Raymond Hanas Kasper Berggren Soderblom Lombardi Neiderbach James Veleno Mazur L-D Nilsson Edvidsson Seider Buium Hronek Johansson Grans Wallinder Cossa Gylander
My question is are we going to be prudent enough to have a give and take with the Grand rapids in that when a player plays well he stays up with the Red wings and when he does and he goes down to Grand rapids to work on his club and his game is that going to be a rule of thumb or not?
I wish Steve Y. was our GM. He seems like he knows what he's doing in building a Solid Foundation for a Hockey Club. The Flyer's Fletcher on the other hand has chained that Organization to a Cap Hell for the next several Seasons. I fully expect the Flyers to be slightly better than Putrid next year and beyond.
But what about the guys who play smart,quick, and spontaneous? The old lumber about hockey is DONE and is OBSOLETE like Mr. Phoney S YZ himself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bos down everyone on the count of three.
Unfortunately with Bettman's NHL the NHL game isn't like it was in the 1980s and 90s anymore so I wasn't interpreting "harder to play against" as fighting guys constantly. I interpret it as making the other team pay a price on the forecheck, in the corners, and in front our net. Tampa does that. Every team at the top of the league is skilled. Toronto has skill. They're soft though and aren't hard to play against and that's why they don't win when it matters.
... Man that is a bit of a stretch.. Yeah he played good 3 on 3 hockey, but that is by no means a metric for success in the NHL. The same could be said about Cossa underperforming at the 3 on 3 tournament. 3 on 3 hockey is very hard. The best NHL goalie in the league's save percentage, and goals against average would drop drastically if they only played 3 on 3 hockey. It's a lot harder to stop pucks with that much open ice. Just a little food for thought. There hasn't been a single huge name all star player to come from the Flint Firebirds, so their development is pretty meh, don't expect Lombardi to produce like that at a NHL level. This stuff is putting heaps of pressure on the rookies to perform to the couch sitting fans expectations
Pure Crass. The Sycophant Comments make me puke. I drive ‘The Porcelain Bus ‘ reading these. S. YZ. ‘Seems’ to be Mr. Humble Nice Guy. Please look more closely. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He is going to the Islanders. Its not yet Official yet but, insider reports have him going there. He will be signed today or tomorrow. Here is a quote from the islander ------> ‘' Just got off the phone with a guy that knows & I think that Nazem Kadri is done to @NYIslanders They have to clear out some cap room & then it'll be announced.

I could listen to Yzerman talk about this team all day. Him and Draper both.
Amen. Horcoff will be a GM one day as well.
Daniella asking the questions doesn't hurt either
I absolutely love that Steve Yzerman is the Red Wings GM. It was meant to be.
I am cautiously optimistic that Martin St Louis Habs beat Detroit in the second round of playoff.
Love that Steve makes himself available for media interviews consistently.

What a great hockey mind. We would never have made these moves if Holland was still around. Thank you Steve for coming home. What a great GM.
It is nice to have someone you can trust running the Wings.We have had some not so great GMs in the past.On with the Yzerplan!
Daniella is such a great analyst and personality on this red wings media team. Terrific work through and through!
Agreed 👍
She is fantastic. Her questions aren't the kind that won't be answered, but neither are they fluff that don't really mean anything.
I like her a lot. Too bad she's paired with Art a lot, what a buzz kill he is.
Love this woman!
Anyone other than Art. He's so goddamn annoying.

I could say the same thing about the podcast 👍 👍 👍
It’s incredible how smart yzerman is, his voice is so relaxing, and did a great job explaining what he thinks these people can do!
We’ll see what happens next season
Amazing interview. Thanks to Steve and Daniella (and the rest of the team).
Great job interviewing Yzerman here Daniella, you’re excellent at your job.
Daniella Bruce was great. Very knowledgeable. Asked perfect questions and Stevie gives me confidence that the Wings are on their way back.
I have so much confidence in this team with the Captain at the helm. LGRW
I'm really excited for the new season! Both Detroit and G.R. will be really cool to watch all season! I hope alot of the younger players in Detroit like Zadina and Veleno find their games with the help of Derek Lalonde. It's a make it or break it season especially for Filip Zadina.

Steve Yzerman is without a doubt the best GM ever to grace the NHL.
Watch.
He set the bar very high and so did Daniella! 👍❤️
be careful the FBI has considered people flying American Flags to be considered domestic terrorists
It is so nice to have him with our organization again. It’s been exciting watching some of the talent he’s brought to the Wings. Really looking forward to watching the new kids develop more and watching how the vets benefit the team.
So happy it was Daniela giving this interview. Also, love listening to Steve speak. An absolute mastermind
love when daniella is involved with just about anything. and this was so much time with stevie y. what a treat all around.
Excellent conversation! Great job Daniella!
excellent questions asked by danielle. really enjoyed this interview, it's always nice to hear from gm yzerman. i like the moves he's made and the rationale behind the moves.
cheers from southern ontario 🍁
The man that made my team perennial cup contenders TBL thank you Steve from top to bottom ❤️👏🏻🔥
Great work Daniella!
When Yzerman compares your play to Lidstrom, you know you're gonna be a great player.
I mean he was talking about arm/stick length I believe but still a good sign
Thank you Steve for all you have done for the Redwings, I have followed you from Australia since the 90s, (it was very difficult back then), but also admired yourself, along with others like Darren McCarty and Nic Lidstrom, plus so many others, never gotten over to see a live game but always plan to try to do it in the next year or so, really great knowing you will do a great job developing this team and helping them become like you and the team was in the late 90s and 2000s.
Yzerman is like a real life hockey Walker Texas Ranger. He's already a legend but we're just watching his legend grow each time an episode is printed.
He's the best. I miss watching him play. One of the greatest of all time.
Daniella did a phenomenal job turning this interview into a conversation
Can you also manage the Tigers please Stevie?
I like that Steve is taking a patient approach to building the Red Wings for the long term instead of just trying to sign free agents to help the team in the short term. Steve did a great job in Tampa and I believe that he will in Detroit as well.
The day he was drafted by the Red Wings was 50 years of good news. Great player, superb GM, wonderful human being. Thanks Stevie. LGRW!
‘Wonderful human being ???’
Haag led the Panthers in hits, love that move
Daniella is looking beautiful as usual
What a great interview ..thoughtful questions. well done 👏
Daniella Bruce out here crushing it!!! You love to see it
Great job Danielle and looking Beautiful like always 👍 🏒
Awesome interview Daniella and Yzerman
Wow one of the best Intervi in a Minute
Great interview!!
Great interview by both parties.
Looks like they are ready to make a move on a playoff spot. 82 games of 60 minutes + to prove they belong in the final 16. Good luck Red Wings.
I’d like to see more video highlighting tallying points in-beaded but I enjoyed this interview. Great content. Thank you.

Surprising amount of substance here from Yzerman. He’s been keeping a lot of this close to the vest so it was nice to get a bit more out of him

Elmer Soderblom's new nickname is The Mountain!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally an intelligent reporter with pertinent questions.
5:28, that’s why I said 2 maybe 3 years Kasper is ready, slide Copp to the wing and don’t miss a beat
Kasper will be ready after next season... Last year on Rogle, he was given minimal roles on the team, and was playing bottom 6 minutes. Rogle and Detroit are very close, and have said Kasper will be given top 6 minutes to help him develop next year.

Stevie has basically all but said that edvinsson will be on the wings this fall.
