The Red Wings are full of players who can do everything except protect themselves. Last year when the Wings won the cup they had Downey and Drake. Seeing as Drake retired and they will never give Downey a chance because he doesn't score goals, they need someone who can stick up for the rest of the players. They should trade the rights to Marian Hossa for Kevin Wesgarth (LA/Manchester). They could easily pay Westgarth the league minimum or pretty close to it, plus he's only 25 so that doesn't mean he can't improve the rest of his skills. Just about the only team that poses a serious threat to the Wings is the Ducks because of their physical play which seems to be their kryptonite (except for helm). Just watch some of these fights.
