HockeytownRules19 902 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 Wow! What the heck! http://twitter.com/DetroitRedWings http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/2011/01/red_wings_tomas_holmstrom_has.html COLUMBUS, Ohio -- More bad news for the Detroit Red Wings, as coach Mike Babcock said after Friday's 3-2 shootout loss to Columbus that forward Tomas Holmstrom suffered a broken right hand late in the third period and will be out at least four weeks.Holmstrom said he's not sure it was from a slash or he got hit with the puck. "I don’t know, I was battling around the net and I felt something,'' Holmstrom said. "I got to the bench and I felt like I can’t hold onto the stick anymore.’’ He will see a hand specialist on Saturday to determine if surgery is needed. “I feel like (bleep),'' Holmstrom said. The Red Wings, who have no extra healthy skaters, are expected to recall Tomas Tatar from the Grand Rapids Griffins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 We're really in for it now, guys. Hopefully this doesn't affect Holmstrom down the road. He already has a history of back problems, he doesn't need anything else Homer is one of my favorite Wings. Anyway, who will get the call? Could we be poised to make a deal for a rental in preparation for more injuries down the stretch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redwingfan19 293 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 hope homer comes back alright, these hand injuries can linger.. on a positive note, we get to see more of tatar and i wouldn't mind seeing him get time in the top 6 and on the PP. keep the bottom lines in tact since they have been playing so well together.
