If Andreas Lilja is ready to play soon, it means either Brett Lebda or Meech would be the seventh defenseman and someone would have to be traded or waived.

“It took a long time to get over it, I’ve got to be honest,” forward Dan Cleary said. “Just like sleeping, anytime that you’re resting, you’re sitting there and all you think about is that game, losing it. I really don’t even talk about it that much. I try not to talk about it. Every time I see a Pittsburgh picture, I have...

from Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press,
The Red Wings, old and young, turn out to be a bunch of Luddites. When the topic of using Twitter, not one Wing asked wanted anything to do with it.
After the skate this morning, Kirk Maltby said he wasn’t even sure what it was for the longest time. He yelled out to Kris Draper to hear if he used it. Draper scoffed, smiled...

A lot of buzz this off season has been around the Philadelphia Flyers and where they are going to replace the 52 goals that Mike Knuble and Joffrey Lupul left behind. There is a similar, and possibly more enticing situation for fantasy in Detroit, where the Red Wings lost Marian Hossa, Jiri Hudler and Mikael Samuelsson.
