Oh ****, you proved me wrong. I apologize.

Anyone who knows anything about Yzerman knows how private he is, and if it were a personal or health issue, he would not discuss it publicly. Any media person is just speculating.This is great news for the simple fact it doesn't appear to be health related. Now we can be selfish: BRING THE CAPTAIN HOME!
No hockey person ever feels their work is done without a Cup. The best team in the league is the Washington Capitals, as they are the Stanley Cup Champions. That's why the timing feels so off and unusual.His work is done in Tampa, they are the best team in the league. Right now the team he played for his entire career is in trouble. I bet he’s very intrigued by the challenge of taking the wings from the bottom to the top, cementing his status as the most important figure in Detroit sports history.
The reason he never sold his house in Michigan is because when he took the Tampa job his daughters were all school aged and enrolled in private Catholic school and they did not want to move them. They are now 19-24. At Yzerman's age, as with Chelios, it may be more of a need to care for aging parents than to spend time with young children.Well there's a reason he never sold his house in Michigan. And this could be it. He wants to rebuild this team back up to greatness.
Agreed.No hockey person ever feels their work is done without a Cup. The best team in the league is the Washington Capitals, as they are the Stanley Cup Champions. That's why the timing feels so off and unusual.
Agreed.
If the Wings had drafted Dahlin it would make more sense. But why step down from Tampa a year early and announce you're going to continue as senior advisor?
This seems like either ownership was unhappy with him and this is a graceful way for him to step down rather than being fired (which seems unlikely) or there actually is some personal issue involved.
His work is done because the team is built now theyre just gonna ride his team out as long as they can and win as many cups as they can.No hockey person ever feels their work is done without a Cup.

Maybe he didn't like the contract extension he was getting offered. At the end of the day it's just a business. Yzerman isn't going to work for Tampa for cheap, even if the team is close to winning. Even if his parents are ailing or whatever he's not going to turn down a multi-year, multi-million dollar contract to be with them during their final days, especially after he has already done the travel thing for seven or eight years already.
At the end of the day Detroit is his home and managing the Red Wings is what he's wants to do. He'd rather run this organization than win a Stanley Cup for a franchise that no one really cares about or has respect for.

It will be a fun times when,
A) Yzerman trades Helm
B) Yzerman trades Glendening
C) Yzerman trades Abdelkader
D) Yzerman trades Ericsson
E) Yzerman trades DeKeyser

Plenty of cap space for Stamkos, Kucherov, Hedman to jump ship for no good reason and come over.It will be a fun times when,

For what its worth, I asked bob mckenzie when he came through my drive thru a few minutes ago and he said he will for sure end up with the red wings in a year from now
I know its ridiculous, but he comes through like 5 times a week. Not sure how I can totally prove it cause i dont really feel comfortable taking a random picture of him lolThis has to be the Hf version of “my uncle works at Nintendo” Awesome experience if true! I’m a bit envious.

Technically, it's possible that the actual Bob McKenzie said those exact words, based on a reliable source...and yet, over the course of a year, circumstances could change.For what its worth, I asked bob mckenzie when he came through my drive thru a few minutes ago and he said he will for sure end up with the red wings in a year from now
100% true, but personally id like to hold on to the hope of him being right hahaTechnically, it's possible that the actual Bob McKenzie said those exact words, based on a reliable source...and yet, over the course of a year, circumstances could change.
