Episode 41 - Same as the Ol dBoss (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On this episode, the silence has been broken! Chris Ilitch speaks on the management situation after taking the entire offseason to fire Steve Yzerman and hire ... an interim General Manager. Shawn Horcoff will assume GM responsibilities while the GM search stretches on into the regular season, and boy do we have opinions about that. BUT FIRST, Dylan Larkin has finally broken his silence to the Detroit beat writers! ... to say absolutely nothing of substance. But hey, at least Todd's back! This i
Episode 40 - Parting the C (ft. Matthew Meyer of Red Wings Diehards) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On this episode, Jack has a discussion with Matthew Meyer of the always-engaging Red Wings Diehards account on X about the press release from the team that reveals that Dylan Larkin is coming back to training camp but will not be wearing a C on his sweater. Is this the first step towards reconciliation between him and the team, or is this just a move that delays the decision-making until there is a GM in place to make it. Also in this episode is a brief recap of the prospect series games, and a
Episode 39 - The Divergent Yzerplan: Steve Yzerman's Tenure in Tampa Bay vs. Detroit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After many days away, the PFH Podcast returns in a big way! In this episode, Jack goes down the rabbit hole, wading through a pile of research into the differences between the Tampa Bay version of GM Steve Yzerman and the Detroit version of GM Steve Yzerman. We go over the situations inherited from the respective predecessors, and the key figures in supporting roles in the front offices. In each case, we examine the major moves that defined each administration through a lens of value creation, a
PFH Episode 2 (re-release) - The Yzerman Era: A Plan in Review (2025) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Back-to-back re-releases! This is a second supplement to the upcoming Episode 39, which details the moves Yzerman made in Tampa Bay, but does not go into all moves made by Yzerman in Detroit. This was recorded in September of 2025, so no Red Wings moves beyond that point are included. Correction: at some point in this podcast, I misstate that Chris Yzerman was "in charge of" professional scouting. This is incorrect, as there has not been a titled Director of Pro Scouting in Detroit since Mark Ho
PFH Episode 1 (re-release) - The Late Ken Holland Years (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Check check, is this thing on? In preparation for a larger episode exploring the differences between the Tampa Bay and Detroit tenures of Steve Yzerman, I'm releasing the very first episode of PFH ever recorded, detailing the situation that Ken Holland left behind from his management in the 2010s. This should serve as a supplement to Episode 39 and can be skipped if you don't want to relive the horror. This was recorded back in August 2025 with Derrick Weber and Adam Lanseur (with non-profession
