Chris Ilitch On The Wings
Bob Wojnowski of the Detroit News with questions for Chris Ilitch on the Wings and Tigers...
Q: A question about the Red Wings. Steve Yzerman’s rebuild somewhat mirrors the Tigers’. They have a young core but have slid late in the season. Are you satisfied with the progress?
A: I love the course there, very analogous to what we’re doing with the Tigers and what we’ve done in history. Steve is building a young core and filling in with free agents. Now is not the time to go all out because he doesn’t have that full young core. He’s got parts, but we need more. I think this season illustrated that we don’t have the depth we need.
