In this edition of the OctoPulse podcast, Ted Kulfan takes a look at the Red Wings' offense, which has dropped to third worst in the league from ninth last year.

He also talks with Pavel Datsyuk ahead of Monday night's Hockey Hall of Fame induction ceremony and he previews Detroit's upcoming four-game roadtrip with host Mark Falkner.

In addition, Hall of Fame broadcaster Sam Rosen is the interview guest. Rosen is the New York Rangers' play-by-play announcer who called the team's first Stanley Cup championship in 54 years in 1994.
