with the prorated hit, it doesn't matter much.

He's another UFA after the end of the season.

St. Louis wanted an arm and a leg for Guerin from Detroit.

Wings' leading scorer out 2-3 weeks with inflamed disk

DETROIT -- Detroit Red Wings forward and leading scorer Henrik Zetterberg is expected to be out two to three weeks with an inflamed disk in his back.

Zetterberg left practice Monday and missed Tuesday's game in Chicago against the Blackhawks.

The 26-year-old from Sweden has 33 goals and 35 assists and two or more points in eight of his last 12 games.

Not as bad as anyone would think. This will be a good rest for him while he gets healthy. His scoring has been carrying the Red Wings for the past month or so anyway.

If he misses 2 weeks, he'll miss games against: Nashville (2 or 3 times), Chicago (he's already missed one against them on Tuesday), Colorado, Boston and Los Angeles.

If he misses 3 weeks: Calgary and Vancouver and would probably return against Columbus on the 24th of March.

[FONT=arial,sans-serif]Holmstrom out couple games; Hasek back later in week[/FONT]

[FONT=arial,sans-serif]
Update from practice Monday: Tomas Holmstrom will be out for the next couple of games because of an undisclosed upper-body injury. It apparently happened during the third period of Friday's game against Chicago but Holmstrom was able to play through it Sunday. The Wings will recall a forward from Grand Rapids later today.

The Wings recalled Bootland, so while the Wings might've gotten marginally tougher, they lose a lot of scoring. :smash:

Word is that this is more precautionary than serious.

Pavel Datsyuk has resigned with the Red Wings.

I don't have any details yet on what the extension covers but when I get it I'll post them.....

ETA: Supposedly there is a 1PM press conference scheduled to announce the deal.

Did they include a clause requiring him to show up in April and May?

I'm pretty sure he's shown up in April so far - Let's hope he keeps it up for the playoffs. I mean, when I was at the Jackets game on Sunday he did have quite the lovely shorthanded goal. Very nice!

Pffft. That was April Fools' Day. He's just setting you up for another disappearing act. :biggrin:

Kinda like the one the CBJ does every October. :sad2:

Dats is saying that he is going to shoot more this time out unlike last year when he was passing first last and only.....

we'll see....

If Bertuzzi is ok and Zetterburg comes back, it might not matter in the first round so much....especially if it's Colorado and not Calgary....:wink2:
