Wings defenseman Andreas Lilja was more than willing to fight on a night when Darren McCarty was out of the lineup with a groin injury.

Too bad Darren McCarty didn’t see fit to skip a practice, like one of his peers from “the Association.” Nice character pickup there Joe. If Mac had opted out of today’s morning skate, he might be in there tonite...instead of nursing a groin injury from the press box. “I’ve been treating it all year,” McCarty said. “I just stopped the wrong way, felt a sharp pain. I don’t think it’s anything super serious.”...

I’m sure the emperor has beaten me to this, and if you’re reading this on the main page for the second time, I feel real and sincere shame. Via TSN, The Detroit Red Wings placed forward Darren McCarty on waivers on Tuesday. McCarty, 36, signed a one-year contract with the Wings in the offseason after re-joining the club last winter and helping lead the team to its fourth Stanley Cup in 11 years. More...

Update (1:51 PM): I’ve been distracted enough so far this season that it slipped my mind: Mac was waived last month as well. So, yeah, this is just an administrative move and one that is likely to keep happening throughout the season. - Matt TSN reports that the Wings have put Darren McCarty on waivers. With two players [...]

Two-Line Pass recently had a great post taking the Wings to task for not having enough cap space to call up rookie Ville Leino while Johan Franzen is out. Ryan’s beef with Detroit is the money they spent on Darren McCarty, who’s been used sparingly by Detroit coach Mike Babcock. Well I’m not sure if Babcock [...]

Think there may be a little friction in the room right now? Darren McCarty essentially replaced Kirk Maltby in the lineup against Chicago Saturday. Khan(!) Babcock said he needs more from his third and fourth lines, one of the reasons why he sat Maltby for Darren McCarty. It was the first time in recent memory Maltby was a healthy scratch. He was upset about it and declined comment.

Two things: (1) The first Zetterberg injury scare of the season has apparently come to an end. Henrik Zetterberg will return to the lineup for tonight’s game against Blues, after missing two games with a sore groin. He will center a line with Johan Franzen and Mikael Samuelsson. Darren McCarty was activated from injured reserve but will not play tonight. (2) I’ll be landing in Vegas at 2200 EST. I’m...
