Updated 1627 CST: Man, I thought I was all live, local and latebreaking on this one. Nope. On The Wings is drilling it.
According to Helene St. James’ Wing Blog, Kenny Holland has pillaged the Grand Rapids roster. Reacting to the non-availability of Tomas Holmstrom, Jason Williams, Nik Kronwall and Chris Osgood; three Griffs are in the air as we speak.
Williams (neck) remains on injured reserve. Holmstrom (groin) and Kronwall (groin) have been put on IR, backdated to November 10, which means they can come off Saturday. Chris Osgood (wrist) has been put on IR retroactive to the 12th.
The latter three moves were made so the Wings would have roster room to call up goaltender Stefan Liv, plus forwards Evan McGrath and Darryl Bootland.
At the time of the morning skate, none of the three were expected to make it to Calgary in time for the game, which isn’t a big deal because it’s not like the Wings are short on players – Dominik Hasek will start tonight and Joey MacDonald will back up, and there are still six healthy defensemen and 12 healthy forwards.
St. James points out that Bootland’s call up may not be a coincidence…considering who the Wings face tomorrow night.
