On today’s episode of 100% Hockey, John Shannon and Daren Millard are joined by Ken Daniels (play-by-play announcer) and Mickey Redmond (color commentator)—who make up what The Athletic calls the best local TV broadcast team in the NHL for the Detroit Red Wings. Together, they explore the craft of hockey broadcasting, how their styles complement each other, and the work it takes to stay on top in the evolving media landscape.

The conversation then shifts to the Detroit Red Wings—reflecting on legendary players, Stanley Cup runs (wins and finals losses), and underlining a pressing issue: the team’s nine-year playoff drought. Daniels and Redmond provide their thoughts on what the franchise needs to do to reverse the trend and return to playoff contention.
