Okay, so the Red Wings practiced on Monday, and after practice, coach Blashill told the media that Bobby Ryan had been released from his pro try-out.

Also of note from Blashill:

Coach Blashill said Givani Smith made it through a whole practice today @DetroitRedWings— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) October 11, 2021

Still have a couple days to figure out whether or not he fits in the lineup #LGRW— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) October 11, 2021

The captain also spoke with the media:

About getting Bertuzzi back and now having Suter in the top 6, “It’s on us now.” — Dylan Larkin #LGRW @DetroitRedWings— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) October 11, 2021

Dyan Larkin said getting Tyler Bertuzzi back along with adding Puis Suter is a huge addition to the top 6. He said now its up to them to produce. @DetroitRedWings #LGRW— Daniella Bruce (@daniellabruce_) October 11, 2021

Dylan Larkin said this team is going to “Start their own History.” @DetroitRedWings #LGRW— Daniella Bruce (@daniellabruce_) October 11, 2021

Larkin says there’s so much history with this team and you can look at that as a lot of pressure. Things haven’t been going well, but this team is going to write a history of their own. @DetroitRedWings #LGRW— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) October 11, 2021

If this doesn’t give you chills, I don’t know what will lol— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) October 11, 2021

Dylan Larkin on his personal goals “I would love to have a bounce back year.” Wants to be better on the power play and penalty kill. #LGRW @DetroitRedWings— Daniella Bruce (@daniellabruce_) October 11, 2021
