The Red Wings have placed Danny DeKeyser on long-term injured reserve, Ken Hollland said. So he's out minimum 10 games and 24 days.

Welp. One gets better, one is out. Smith had a great game yesterday, hope it continues.

DIdn't they say 1-2 weeks with a dislocated shoulder?

Bring up Nyquist and XO. Trade Quincey. Send down Andersson and bring up Sheahan.

*Just waive Andersson if he's out of options.

That's what they said yesterday, but it was to be evaluated again today.

 

[Frk It]

I'm guessing this has a negative implication to the whole Nyquist situation.

Wings estimate 3-6 weeks on DeKeyser.

Maybe not. If Alfredsson / Weiss is ready for the weekend, they'll be good. If not, they'll have to call-up someone, using some of the cap-space available and therefore slowing down the Call Up Nyquist front.

Eek. Hope this isn't a sign of things to come for DeKeyser. Would hate to see him injured on a regular basis.

Having had dis located shoulders before they such and take a long time to feel comfortable again

Helm 2.0

 

[Winger98]

so, the soonest they are expecting him back is Dec. 14th against the Pens. Considering how quickly they made this call, I'm already saying I won't be surprised if he missed another week on top of that.

I wonder who gets called up.

Right. But you'd have to assume they are going to call up somebody they can just send back down (Glendening, Sheahan, Jurco) over Nyquist who they'd have to make a move for to keep up, since he can't go back down later on without clearing stuff out.

Does he have a track record going back to WMU of being injury-prone? Or are you just hoping this isn't the first symptom of Helm-itis afflicting him?

Dammit, 1 minute too slow!

Well I'm going back to his wrist injury which took him out of the playoffs.

That date. It looks familiar! It's a sign people!

C is not a problem IMO. and sheahan adds nothing this team needs at the moment i'd say.

instead of a stable C i'd rather see them trying out a new winger. i wouldn't mind to see jurco or pulkkinen. who knows, maybe one of them is able to give them some scoring right away.

while i can see that andersson didn't play well, i think i'd like to see cleary and sammy out of the roster (aka being scratched) first.

 

[Brick Top]

Well I'm going back from his wrist injury which took him out of the playoffs.

Oh yeah, forgot about that one.

****.

Wrist? He broke his thumb.

Fair enough. I'm just tired of seeing Joker on the PK and 3rd line. I'd love to see some Ferraro or Jurco.

Potato, potahto.

God damnnittttttttttttttttttttttt.

D is going to get eaten alive if we can't get our main guys back.

Won't be any worse than it has been. Would help if Jimmy started playing better and the offense started scoring. This gives a chance for Kindl and Smith to step up.

oh yeah, forgot about ferraro. his speed i'd love to see for a few games. especially since they need to judge him soon anyway because of his waiver status.

i think andersson will be fine as soon as he get better wingers. he had to play most of the season with trash like cleary. give him gus back and someone like tatar/ferraro and i think andersson will no longer be a problem on even strength. he's probably not a future red wing, but as of now i think you can make him useful by playing him with the right guys and not the dead weight.

Thank god we have such a potent offense to offset these setbacks on D.
