I had to take my mother to a doctor’s appointment today, so I missed the Red Wings’ optional practice. After practice, Jeff Blashill and Mike Green spoke with the media…
“I love it here, my focus is still here and always has been.”

#RedWings Blashill said Bertuzzi will replace Tatar on line with Larkin and Athanasiou. Said Frk or Nielsen will take Tatar’s spot on power play and Bertuzzi, whose minutes will increase, remains on power play.

Mike Green on odds he'll resign with Detroit since he wasn't traded:
