Now it feels like the offseason is here as the NHL & the Detroit Red Wings have quieted down (for now).

Tune in as we update you on how the Winged Wheel Podcast will slow down for the summer (we're still going to be here weekly!) (0:00) before we jump into a discussion on Michael Brandsegg-Nygard's development path, whether he'll join Axel Sandin Pellikka in Skelleftea in the SHL or join the likes of Nate Danielson, Marco Kasper, Carter Mazur, and others in competing for a Detroit Red Wings or Grand Rapids Griffins spot in the AHL (5:05).

After that, we loop in on the Steve Yzerman & Moritz Seider / Lucas Raymond contract negotiations, what the prospective term and AAV may be, how lessons from Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner, & Kyle Dubas in Toronto loom large, how these future stars affect the rest of Detroit's talent like Dylan Larkin, Alex DeBrincat, Patrick Kane, Simon Edvinsson, & more (13:10).

Next, a quick update on Jacob Trouba (28:20) before we take a look at the Detroit Red Wings prospective lineup, where the weaknesses are as Patrick Kane and Vladimir Tarasenko may be playing with J.T. Compher, Chiarot, Seider, Johansson, & others moving around on defense, all in front of a flurry of goalies in Lyon, Talbot, Husso, & others (31:15).

Finally, a quick discussion on the salary cap and no income tax states (& Barry Trotz's comments) (41:45) before we take your questions and comments during our Overtime segment (53:40) - enjoy!
