When Detroit Red Wings’ general manager Steve Yzerman talks, everyone stops to listen. The Red Wings legend doesn’t hold court often, and certainly holds the cards close to the vest. So when he does discuss matters, everyone is tuned in–especially the fans.
As noted by the Detroit Free Press’ Helene St. James, Yzerman’ s chat during a video conference with the Detroit Economic Club, was one not open to media questions.
