Patrick Kane is Headed to the Red Wings | Jeff Marek Show
HE JOINS ME NOW 678 OF — HE JOINS ME NOW. HOW ARE YOU? >> I’M GOOD, JEFF, ARE YOU? >> Jeff: HOW SURPRISED WERE YOU TO FIND OUT THAT PATRICK KANE THIS MORNING IS A DETROIT RED WINGS? >> NOT REALLY SURPRISE. BUT THE FACT THAT THE THEY GOT INTO A POSITION TO DO THIS. PATRICK KANE WANTED TO GO ON A TEAM THAT HE COULD WIN ON BUT AFTER THE GLOBAL SERIES AND TO GET BACK ON TRACK AND THIS WEEK OVER MINNESOTA I THINK THAT PROBABLY DID SHOW THAT FINAL STEP THAT THE RED WINGS ARE A
TEAM THAT CAN AT LEAST MAKE A PLAYOFF PUSH. >> Jeff: WHAT’S THIS GONNA DO FOR THE MARKETPLACE SPECIFICALLY? LISTEN, RED WINGS’ FANS ARE YEAR AFTER YEAR GETTING MORE EXCITED AT THE IDEA THAT THEY’RE TEAM WILL FINALLY QUALIFY FOR THE PLAYOFFS DESPITE THE GLOBAL SERIES IN STOCKHOLM THAT DIDN’T GO SWIMMINGLY. THIS YEAR IS MORE THAN OKAY FOR THE RED WINGS AND THEY FIND THEMSELVES IN A NICE SPOT AND LOOKING UPWARDS. WHAT DOES THIS DO TO THE FAN BASE IN DETROIT, MAX? >> IT VALIDATES WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO BELIEVE ABOUT THEIR TEAM IN THE EARLY SEASON
OF THE NHL IT MIGHT BE THE YEAR. HOW MANY TIMES DID WE SEE THIS WITH BUFFALO AND THEN BACK TO EARTH. BUT THIS TELLS THE FAN
