Konnan511 1,736 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 Brad Stuart - Game to game basis, played tonight against TOR, but nothing is for certain regarding the rest of preseason. Jan Mursak - Out 2-3 months with a fractured ankle. Mike Commodore - Mike Commodore might not be ready for the start of the regular season, Oct. 7 against Ottawa, due to a sore knee.Red Wings general manager Ken Holland said Commodore will be out 1-3 weeks.Commodore hurt his knee in Wednesday's preseason game at Chicago. He said it's an MCL issue and an MRI revealed no damage.“I just kind of tweaked my knee. I've never done that before so it's all new to me,'' Commodore said. " It's pretty sore and swollen. But there isn't any major damage.'' Daniel Cleary - Dan Cleary is out for the rest of the preseason with an undisclosed upper-body injury. The hope is for him to be healthy by the start of the regular season, but it's not clear yet if he will in fact be ready. Pavel Datsyuk - Didn't play on Friday, but he should be able to suit up on Saturday if he feels better about his stiff back. Link 1 Link 2 Link 3 I figured with all the injuries for the Wings and instead of having an NHL injury thread, it'd be a good idea to know what's going on for our home front.

Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 Some good news... Holland said Jan Mursak (fractured left ankle) will not need surgery, but isn't expected to return for 2-3 months I guess that's something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 It's a little worrisome that Dats has a stiff back headed into the season. Groin pulls and things like that seem more common when they start playing, but not so much the back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted October 1, 2011 I'd kinda like to see them carry Exelby as the 7th and break up Kindl and E when Commy is out: Lidstrom-White Ericsson-Kronwall Kindl-Stuart (and no, I'm not stating Stuart is a 3rd pair guy - I think all 3 pairs should evenly split minutes) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
