## Resource

Wednesday morning, it was announced Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman was stepping down from the position and into a senior advisory role under team CEO Chris Ilitch. With captain Dylan Larkin's desire to be traded still at the forefront, the incoming GM will have this saga waiting from the moment the ink is dry on a contract. Beyond that, a proud franchise which hasn't made the playoffs in ten seasons appears to be in some disarray. Plenty to unpack as the Wings look to steady the waters.
