DETROIT, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – The Detroit Red Wings say Steve Yzerman’s time as executive vice president and general manager is over.
He will stay with the NHL team as senior advisor to Governor and CEO Chris Ilitch, and the Red Wings are now searching for their next GM.
Yzerman was hired in 2019 to try to resurrect the franchise that he starred with for 22 seasons, but Detroit has missed the playoffs for the last ten seasons.
He is one of nine Red Wings to have his jersey number retired.
