As July steamrolls toward August, the slowest month of the NHL calendar year is upon us. But it doesn't mean the Red Wings won't be active.
Alright, so a lot of us will criticize Steve Yzerman for setting the Detroit Red Wings up for mediocrity in 2025-26, whether that's by design of if players are simply avoiding a stay in Hockeytown. I don't know why that'd be the case, since it'd be an honor to wear the winged wheel as opposed to a logo that's not so rich in history and aesthetics, but whatever; it's their loss.
