Gosted! Shayne Gostisbehere blows off Detroit Red Wings to sign with Carolina Hurricanes
Steve Yzerman on Detroit Red Wings’ draft, priority in free agency
Steve Yzerman talks after the second day of the NHL Draft, June 29, 2024 in Las Vegas.
The Detroit Red Wings will have to find someone else to run their first power play unit.
Shayne Gostisbehere, the team’s leader in man-advantage points last season, has been lost to the Carolina Hurricanes.
He took a pay cut from the $4.13 million he made with the Wings, but instead gets three years at $3.2 million per season. The Wings wouldn’t give the 31-year-old that many years – nor tempt him with a two-year deal at more money, apparently.

Gostisbehere had a transformative effect on the power play, where he delivered 29 of his 51 points.
The knock on Gostisbehere, though, has always been his defense.
The Wings instead brought in Erik Gustafsson, a 32-year-old who last played for the New York Rangers. He’s better defensively, but not as potent offensively and he’s not a power-play guy.

How do Metro Detroit kids & parents feel about school lunches?
WAYNE COUNTY, Mich. (WXYZ) — Michigan is all set to put another $40 million to help continue funding free school meals for all public school students regardless of income.
So, to understand how the community feels about it, I went and spoke to parents in both Oakland and Wayne counties.
The first question I asked was: how often they use the program?
“We are about 50-50 utilizing it,” said Markeesha. “Our kids are not really found of what the school offers as far as lunches. They don’t really utilize breakfast because they typically eat a good breakfast at home. But as far as lunches they say they are really mediocre.”
“Some days more than others, based on the offerings,” said Justin. “We want to make sure there is always the option for them to have additional food if there is anything they want to buy.”
“If there is a meal the kids like, then they get to choose that. Usually, we tell them two meals a week; the rest are kind of from home,” said Jon. “I think it is probably good for some of the students or residents that maybe need that assistance; I don’t know if it’s for everybody…my concern mostly is the nutritional value of it.”
“I think kids should be able to go to school and not worry about food,” said Meggan.
“On average, for the school year, $50, and without school lunch, it has probably been $250,” said Jessica. “And fortunately, we can afford that there are parents out there that cannot.”
When asked what kids usually get with their school lunch, the meals usually consist chicken sandwiches, a vegetable and milk.
“It’s usually a main item, an entree, a hamburger, pizza, or something like that, then there is a veggie and a fruit option and a drink,” Jon said.
What about dietary restrictions or religious needs, is that a concern?
“Well, generally, the schools consider that when they prepare meals,” Meggan said. “My kids are vegetarians, and pretty much now, camps and programs that serve food have vegetarian options.”
If there is any kind of food you would like to see added on to the menu, what would that be?
“Turkey sandwich,” said Max.
Would you like every school district to have a unified menu?
“That sounds great to me,” said Kevin. “Like let’s say a more affluent city, they have better food options vs those in a lesser situation, so a unified menu would level the food Plainfield.”
“That would be nice,” Markeesha said.
