So, I guess we have something to talk about.
As you've seen below at KK, Steve Yzerman is stepping down as GM of the Tampa Bay Lightning.
As you've seen below here at A2Y for about four years, Ken Holland is out of his depth and needs to be placed into a Jimmy D-like position of little to no influence over personnel decisions made by the Detroit Red Wings.
Now we wait, and we hope.
First, we hope that this isn't medically related. It's shocking and the timing is crazy weird, I guess. We are all hoping this is a professional move on Yzerman's part, not a personal one affecting him or his family.
Secondly, we hope he's on his way to Detroit.
If he doesn't have a suitcase, he needs to get a box, or an old brown paper sack. He can pack it light or pack it heavy. Take a truck, take a Chevy.
Captain, just come back.
Oh yes I did. That's George Strait for you, right here on A2Y.
According to the Tweets posted by the Emperor (and I'm sure they're still flooding in), he's going to stay on in an advisory role.
I'm going to step aside and let you guys discuss, but I'll tell you this...Shit. I don't have to tell you anything.
Come home, Captain. Let's go.
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.
