It's pronounced: Söderblom. The Winged Wheel Podcast is thrilled to be joined by Detroit Red Wings & Grand Rapids Griffins forward, Elmer Soderblom!
Tune in as we start the show by discussing Detroit's overtime win over Erik Karlsson & the San Jose Sharks, including Dylan Larkin's 400th point, Rasmussen's strong game, Andrew Copp's game-winning goal, & more (4:10).
We're joined by Elmer Soderblom to discuss his surprising training camp & making the Red Wings roster, his 1st career goal at the LCA home opener, what life in Hockeytown is like compared to Frolunda in the SHL, how players like Lucas Raymond have eased his transition from Sweden, driving in Michigan, what Derek Lalonde wants him to work on in the AHL, playing against his brother, & more (12:50)!
With the NHL Trade Deadline getting ever closer, the rumors of Steve Yzerman pursuing Bo Horvat from the Vancouver Canucks are growing stronger. Tune in as we discuss the validity behind those rumors, how a Horvat trade & signing could affect Dylan Larkin's contract, whether Hronek, Zadina, or Tyler Bertuzzi would be involved (as opposed to Kasper or Edvinsson), whether Yzerman could wait until free agency, if the rebuild is in danger, & LOTS MORE (31:50).
All of that & plenty more before taking your questions & comments in Overtime (1:02:25) - enjoy!
