Darren McCarty criticizes Red Wings' interim GM decision

Darren McCarty questioned the decision to name Shawn Horcoff as interim general manager of the Detroit Red Wings, suggesting that it did not signify any real change in leadership. He expressed concerns about the prolonged search for a permanent replacement, stating that it indicates a lack of interest in the GM position. McCarty's assessment arises amid Detroit's announcement on September 15 that Horcoff would oversee roster and salary-cap decisions during the search for a permanent GM. Despite internal candidates being considered, McCarty doubts the organization is closer to finding a lasting answer.
