If you caught much of the Detroit Red Wings game on Fox Sports Detroit on Tuesday night, you may have noticed the game was an ode to Darren Eliot.

The former Wings goalie had been one of the pregame/between the benches/between period/postgame and occasional game analysts for the last few seasons. But the Wings' 3-2 win in Nashville was Eliot's last game with FSD.

As the TV crew alluded to during and after the game, Eliot, who was also the director of the Little Caesars youth hockey program, has taken a job with the Vegas Golden Knights as vice president of hockey programming and facility operations.

And so, with just Chris Osgood as the other studio analyst, the question becomes who, if anyone, will get Eliot's reps on the desk in Southfield and at Little Caesars Arena.

Kyle Bogey, the WXYT-FM (97.1) evening host and WXYZ-TV fill-in anchor, reported on Wednesday that, during the Wings viewing party at the Sound Board at Motor City Casino, former Wings defenseman and Hockey Hall of Famer Larry Murphy said he would be returning to FSD.

Murphy was a member of the FSD crew for the Wings years ago, but was fired by the network in March 2013. Murphy told the Free Press he was informed he was let go because of ratings.

The four-time Stanley Cup champion, who was a blue liner for the Wings' 1997 and 1998 title teams, has worked with the NHL Network.

A message for FSD has not yet been returned.
