Wings Have Too Many Players

from Ansar Khan of Mlive,

“We got a lot of players battling for jobs,” coach Mike Babcock said. “I got 10 NHL defensemen, can’t have 10. I got a whole pile of NHL forwards, can’t have that; got three NHL goalies, can’t have that. So there’s going to be some real battles.”

The biggest battle is on defense, where one of four players—Andreas Lilja, Derek Meech, Kyle Quincey or Brett Lebda—is expected to be traded for a draft pick or prospect before the start of the regular season Oct. 9.

The scariest part of having too many players is that quite a few of them are maturing/peaking at the right time.

Remember the ‘02 Champs?  “So many stars.  Only one puck to go around.”
