The Speculation Continues

from Craig Custance of The Athletic,

“I think that probably between now and sometime at the end of the year, I would expect there would be some kind of decision made,” Holland told The Athletic this week....

Speculation that Holland is moving upstairs. Speculation that he’s the front-runner for the eventual Seattle opening (“The league has a lot of say in this and they’ll push hard for him,” said one GM). Speculation that Yzerman is going to return in some capacity to spark the rebuild, a topic the Lightning GM quickly cut off before it could be explored for this story.

“He would have to get his head checked,” said an NHL source on Yzerman’s possible return to Detroit. “(Tampa) is going to be good for the next five to seven years.”

About Abel to Yzerman

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
