Add another body to the growing injured list. Darren Helm, who sustained an apparent leg injury in a collision with San Jose’s Dominic Moore and limped off the ice, has had an MRI performed on his left knee. A “second degree MCL sprain” was detected and he’s been shut down for 4-6 weeks. With only […]
On the February 27th trade deadline, the Red Wings shipped Mike Commodore to the Tampa Bay Lightning. Many of us assumed that there was another deal in the works and that the Red Wings were ridding themselves of a contract. They were, at the time, at the limit 50 contracts (also the reason that Sebastien […]
The Red Wings are out west for a three-game run in California in hopes that they can get back above .500 on the road. The fun kicks off tomorrow night in Los Angeles, before heading to Anaheim in Wednesday, and ending in San Jose on Saturday. Injuries are still a massive issue, and Gustav Nyquist […]
The rash of injuries to the Detroit Red Wings continues, as Jimmy Howard left last night’s game after the first period with an undisclosed (of course it was) lower body injury that was revealed to not be his finger that kept him out 8 games earlier in the season. Adding insult to (wait for it) […]
The NHL’s annual trading deadline was at 3pm Eastern — and today was a little more active than last year. However, the Red Wings weren’t among the teams that made a big move to bolster their lineup with a month to go before the playoffs. General Manager Ken Holland said that they went after a […]
The Detroit Red Wings have traded Mike Commodore to the Tampa Bay Lightning for a conditional 7th round pick. There’s no word yet what the conditions are — but it’s likely “if Commodore re-signs in Tampa,” so it’s very likely a trade just to open up a roster spot — not only on the big […]
Tonight, the Red Wings lost to the Vancouver Canucks by a score of 4-3 in a shootout. You know the old saying in the NHL: “after you’ve won 23 games at home, there’s no sense in being angry about losing the next one.” Oh, they don’t say that? That’s because it’s never been done before. […]
In honor of Todd Bertuzzi’s official re-signing, announced by the team this morning, our buddy Alvin would like you to know that he has a few Bertuzzi Kuzzi’s left over and they can be yours! Alvin (@abrant23) is getting married this weekend (MAHZEL TOV, SON!), so he might not respond to your e-mails right away. […]
***UPDATE: Thursday, 11:55am*** The team has made the signing official — announcing the extension this morning. A few hours later, TSN’s Bob McKenzie would deliver the figures and they’re a little lower than originally reported: He will make $1.975M next season — and $2.175M in 2013-14. The cap hit, which is calculated by taking the […]
In an odd, three-team trade this afternoon, the Detroit Red Wings re-acquired Kyle Quincey from the Tampa Bay Lightning — who had, moments earlier, acquired him from the Colorado Avalanche. TSN’s Bob McKenzie has confirmed that the trade is final and that the Red Wings are now the proud owners of Kyle Quincey’s contract, which […]
