The Red Wings had everyone skating this morning at the Joe in preparation for tonight's game against the Dallas Stars, but a left ankle injury might prevent Patrick Eaves from playing. All Mike Babcock would say following the skate was that Kirk Maltby is in if an unspecified skater can't go. In other news, Valtteri Filppula was fitted with a soft cast today, putting him just a touch...

from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN, The Detroit Red Wings are suddenly slumping, not so coincidentally after losing star blueliner Niklas Kronwall. But anyone waiting for veteran GM Ken Holland to pull off a blockbuster trade any time soon better not hold their breath. At least not at this point. For starters, Holland believes the work effort is there. But also, and perhaps more importantly, there are salary...

Red Wings center Valtteri Filppula made a timely appearance today, skating for a bit after his teammates had gotten done with their practice. Filppula remains out at least through mid-December with a broken right wrist, but he's starting to, though gently, get back on the ice. Mike Babcock had a good laugh about Filppula's casual skating gear. "I thought he was Santa Claus out...

Wouldn't that be perfect if we were playing the BJs tonight? Unfortunately, I don't have any Flames in costume, and the only Red Wings-related Halloween picture I can find is wildly inappropriate: Since, as we just found out, Valtteri Filppula's pimpin' hand ain't strong . And that's where we stand, before a team that's not afraid of blood, already injury-ravaged, desperately, desperately in need...

With Valtteri Filppula out 6-8 weeks because of a broken bone in his right wrist, this almost certainly necessitates the Wings break up Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk because of a shortage of skilled centers. Zetterberg and Datsyuk started the season separately, anyways, and only were reunited because neither was doing much offensively. Now both have gotten going, with Datsyuk having racked up...

What happened: The Wings gave up a goal on the first shift of the game when Brian Rafalski couldn't clear the puck in time, allowing Henrik Sedin to beat Chris Osgood cleanly. Christian Ehrhoff scored on a wrist shot at 7:05, on Vancouver's fourth shot on net. Then Todd Bertuzzi put a shot into Roberto Luongo's right leg pads and Nicklas Lidstrom hit a crossbar, but the...

VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- In an effort to generate more offense, the Detroit Red Wings plan to use Valtteri Filppula liberally tonight against Vancouver. Darren Helm, meanwhile, will be a healthy scratch.
