The Yzerplan is over, so what comes next in Detroit?
via shapshotshockey.com
From Sean Shapiro of Shap Shots:
It’s both the most and least surprising news at the same time.
Steve Yzerman is out as the Detroit Red Wings general manager.
It’s unsurprising because in the short-lived world of NHL general managers, eight seasons without a playoff appearance is easily grounds for dismissal. In fact, for most organizations, three or four years without a playoff appearance are grounds for getting sacked...
I am a Shap Shots subscriber, as I love Sean's work (and Sean the person, a great friend). Highly recommended, especially for Wings and Stars fans. He and Robert Tiffin also have a great weekly show. -NHLJeff
