## Resource

Detroit’s leadership shakeup continues as Steve Yzerman steps down, leaving GM and president roles vacant—while Dylan Larkin’s trade request stalled with only one team showing interest. The Red Wings have officially stripped Larkin of the captaincy, delaying a new captain announcement. Potential successors include veteran Andrew Copp (9G, 43P last season), loyal scorer Alex DeBrincat, and defenseman Justin Faulk—all with one year left on their deals. But the frontrunner? 25-year-old Moritz Seider, whose rising play and leadership make him the most likely heir to the A.
