Red Wings defenseman Simon Edvinsson is skating in Sweden, still unsigned, two days before the home opener. Max Bultman of The Athletic Detroit joins this Detroit Red Wings podcast for a season preview covering the Detroit Red Wings lineup, Dylan Larkin's trade request, & more. (00:00) - Intro (04:25) - Edvinsson Goes to Sweden Simon Edvinsson is skating with Frolunda of the SHL, and the panel traces a summer of indecision from Steve Yzerman's July 15 removal as GM to Shawn Horcoff getting the interim GM job days before camp. Plus, how a layup deal became a contract standoff that complicates Alex DeBrincat's future, and the Elliotte Friedman report that Zach Werenski put Detroit on his no-fly list, & more. (31:40) - Red Wings 23-Man Roster Review of the roster announced Monday: William Wallinder looks like the odd man out once bodies return with Andreas Englund claimed off waivers. Todd McLellan calls Dylan Larkin day-to-day, will he play? Plus, what to make of Mazur, Anton Johansson, and others. (40:20) - Forward Group Preview With Andrew Copp potentially opening as the first-line center, so the panel sees a top-heavy group that may finish near the bottom of the NHL in scoring. Max predicts a Larkin trade by December 1, and Marco Kasper has to climb back up the lineup after ending exhibition play in the bottom six. (1:03:25) - Defense Preview & Faulk Trade Talk Anton Johansson's five exhibition assists and Axel Sandin-Pellikka's best preseason in a Red Wings jersey make the case for playing both every night. Justin Faulk, with a 15-team no-trade list, could be moved as early as November, and the panel weighs Larkin deals with Minnesota or a three-way with Montreal and Washington. (1:20:05) - Gibson and Tarasov in Net Starting goalie John Gibson and backup Daniil Tarasov are both in contract years; Max Bultman wants Michal Postava, now with the Grand Rapids Griffins, to get NHL games down the stretch if Detroit is out of contention. (1:22:40) - Season Point Predictions All four panelists have the Red Wings missing the playoffs, with point totals between 79 and 82. The crew also asks what really separates Detroit without Larkin from teams like the Seattle Kraken. (1:26:40) - Overtime Edvinsson can still sign an offer sheet, and the risk only grows once the season starts. Patrons also ask about hands-on owners, why Team USA players pass on Canadian markets, Lucas Raymond's ceiling and the league-wide shortage of centers. --- WWP Night at the LCA dates announced!

Boomer, Pinder and Rhett dive into the Seattle Kraken ahead of their matchup with the Calgary Flames and try to figure out one pretty simple question: what the hell is this team? Seattle missed the playoffs again last season, finishing 34-37-11, but instead of tearing things down, the Kraken largely decided to run it back and bet on growth from their younger players. Shane Wright looked like he could be on his way out during the summer, but a trade never materialized and the former fourth-overall pick remains in Seattle trying to establish himself as a major part of this team. The guys break down a roster that feels stuck somewhere between competing and rebuilding, the lack of true high-end star power and what the actual long-term plan is supposed to be. Are the Kraken building toward something with this young core, or is another mediocre season finally going to force Seattle into a full rebuild?Video Link: https://youtu.be/kaLshH1XqFE #nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #seattlekraken CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️ BARN BURNER MERCH https://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/Flamesnation BARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8

PRGN Presents: News & Views from the Public Relations Global Network
Hosting a global sporting event is about much more than filling stadiums and delivering a great experience. For a host city, it is also an opportunity to shape reputation, strengthen community pride and create something that lasts long after the crowds go home.In this episode, Aaron Blank, president and CEO of Fearey, and Peter Tomozawa, CEO of Seattle FIFA World Cup 26, take us behind the scenes of Seattle's approach to the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Peter explains why successful host-city bids must focus less on touting a city's assets and more on understanding what the organization making the decision actually needs—and how Seattle reframed its strengths accordingly.Aaron and Peter also discuss the importance of building local credibility before pursuing global visibility, bringing businesses and communities into the experience, and thinking beyond the matches themselves. For Seattle, the goal was not simply to host the World Cup successfully, but to use the moment to strengthen the city, expand access to soccer and create memories and infrastructure that would endure for decades.Key Takeaways Major events can function as reputation campaigns, giving cities an unusual opportunity to shape how residents, visitors and global audiences perceive them.Winning a host-city bid requires understanding what the decision-maker needs, not simply promoting everything that makes your city impressive.Local credibility should come before global visibility. Community support, business participation and grassroots engagement create the foundation for a successful international moment.The most meaningful impact often happens beyond the event itself, through investments in infrastructure, access, community programming and shared experiences.Legacy should be part of the strategy from the beginning. The real measure of success is not only what happens during the event, but what people remember—and what remains—years later.About the Guests Peter Tomozawa is a global executive with more than 40 years of leadership experience across finance, professional sports, civic service, and education. A former Partner and Global Head of Foreign Exchange Sales at Goldman Sachs, he later served as Vice President and Executive Director of Partnerships and Board Relations for Los Angeles' successful bid to host the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Peter is an owner of Seattle Sounders FC, where he previously served as President of Business Operations, and a minority owner of the Vegas Golden Knights. He also helped lead Seattle's successful FIFA World Cup host-city bid and serves as CEO of the Seattle FIFA World Cup 2026 Local Organizing Committee. Peter has also served in public and nonprofit roles, including as Executive Director of Business Development in the Honolulu Mayor's Office, where he advanced projects including a $5 billion light rail system, Waikiki public WiFi, and innovative public-private park partnerships. He also served as Commissioner of Charter Schools in Hawaii, helping stabilize and grow a statewide education system. A lifelong ice hockey, skiing, soccer, and racquet sports enthusiast, Peter brings an authentic passion for sport alongside extensive leadership experience in finance, global events, and civic development.Aaron Blank is CEO, president and owner of Fearey, one of the West Coast's leading public relations and strategic communications firms. A trusted advisor to sports organizations, athletes, venues and major brands, Aaron has helped shape high-profile moments across the sports landscape, including the launch of the NHL's Seattle Kraken and major initiatives tied to soccer, golf, baseball, football, hockey and entertainment. Aaron played a key communications role in helping Seattle announce its new arena and launch the Kraken brand and NHL franchise, supporting the team's public relations efforts for five years. His sports experience also includes work connected to the FIFA World Cup, LPGA Tour, Minor League Baseball, Topgolf and TOCA Football, as well as athlete and celebrity partnerships involving Basketball Hall of Famer Lenny Wilkens and former Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jermaine Kearse. Since joining Fearey in 2005, Aaron has helped grow the firm into a creative communications leader serving clients across sports, healthcare, civic, corporate and community sectors.

Summer Coolers – Seattle KrakenThe Seattle Kraken enter 2026-27 facing serious questions about the direction of the franchise. Seattle finished with just 79 points and missed the playoffs for the third consecutive season—and for the fourth time in five years since entering the NHL. Neil Smith and Vic Morren believe the early success of the Vegas Golden Knights created expectations Seattle has never been able to match. Even more concerning, high-end players appear unwilling to choose Seattle, while the Kraken have done little to pivot when those pursuits fail.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00:00] Seattle finishes sixth with 79 points and misses the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the third consecutive season.[00:00:25] The Kraken have reached the postseason only once in five seasons, advancing to Game 7 of the second round in 2023.[00:00:45] Vic believes Vegas' immediate expansion success created an unrealistic comparison for Seattle and raised expectations the Kraken have never approached.[00:01:00] Neil is surprised Seattle has struggled to attract free agents because he views the city as a tremendous hockey destination with an outstanding arena.[00:01:30] Despite those advantages, Neil says he does not like what he sees from Seattle heading into this season.[00:01:50] Vic compares Seattle's inactivity to Calgary's previous offseason, when the Flames did almost nothing despite needing improvement.[00:02:00] Seattle's lone trade addition is Mackie Samoskevich from Florida for a 2026 first-round pick and conditional 2027 second.[00:02:25] Goaltender Viktor Östman re-signs, while captain Jordan Eberle and Bobby McMann also remain with the Kraken.[00:02:45] Curtis Douglas arrives from Vancouver as a bottom-six forward, representing Seattle's only notable outside UFA addition.[00:03:00] Two original Kraken players depart: Jaden Schwartz signs with Colorado and Jamie Oleksiak heads to Vancouver.[00:03:15] Neil says Seattle's problem goes beyond inactivity—the Kraken are being turned down by star players.[00:03:25] Artemi Panarin reportedly had an opportunity to go to Seattle before joining Los Angeles but chose the Kings despite Seattle being able to offer more money.[00:03:45] Jason Robertson also reportedly rejects an opportunity to move to Seattle before ultimately signing a one-year deal to remain with Dallas.[00:04:00] Neil distinguishes Seattle from a market like Calgary. Seattle can pursue high-end players financially, but when those players say no, the Kraken seemingly have no Plan B.[00:04:20] Neil also questions the organizational direction following Ron Francis' departure and Jason Botterill taking over as GM.[00:04:40] Lane Lambert begins his second season behind the Seattle bench, but Neil remains highly skeptical about the roster surrounding him.[00:05:00] Offense is the biggest concern after Seattle finished 28th in scoring last season.[00:05:15] Jordan Eberle led the Kraken with only 55 points, one of the lowest team-leading scoring totals anywhere in the NHL.[00:05:30] That places even more attention on Matty Beniers, the second overall selection in 2021 and former Calder Trophy winner.[00:05:45] Vic believes Seattle needs considerably more than approximately 20 goals and 50 points from a player drafted to become one of the franchise's cornerstones.[00:06:00] Neil agrees. Beniers had an excellent rookie season but has not developed into the impact player Seattle expected.The Kraken need more than incremental improvement. They need stars, offense and a clearer organizational direction. Neil and Vic's biggest concern is that Seattle is pursuing elite talent, getting rejected, and then failing to find meaningful alternatives. Unless Beniers takes a major step and the existing roster produces far more offense, another difficult season could be ahead.
