from Ansar Khan of Mlive,
The Detroit Red Wings might be forced to play with 17 skaters—one under the limit—tonight against the Pittsburgh Penguins, depending on the status of defenseman Brad Stuart.
Stuart did not skate this morning. Coach Mike Babcock said he was hurt in Saturday’s game in Vancouver but the club did not find out about the injury until today. Babcock would not reveal the injury, saying “he’s getting checked out right now.’‘
Forwards Patrick Eaves (sore back, neck) and Dan Cleary (sore groin) will not play tonight.

Can Ozzie play forward ???
How about Larry Murphy? He is payed by FXN.
Can Babcock be a player-coach? Or get Stevie Yzerman out there.
Those 2 management guys would not cost anything on the CAP.

Cap issues unless they place someone (gulp) on LTIR.

Kill me now. I hate this season. I’ve NEVER seen such wounded Wings team in my life. Anybody have any stats on that?

This sucks for sure, hopefully they are only short term injuries, but playing below the limit isn’t a huge deal. Did anyone watching the Vancouver game on CBC the other night pick up on the announcers saying that Lebda was dressed and on the bench but didn’t play a shift? If that’s the case we should be fine. Move him back to D and go with 11 forwards. It worked the other night.

Stuart will play and Malkin is out for the Pens.

... and Malkin is out for the Pens.
