The Red Wings posted a Tweet today which revealed the numbers that several players will be donning for the 2019-2020 season.
I’m a little surprised that Valtteri Filppula will continue to wear #51 as Frans Nielsen is changing to #81 to accommodate Filppula; Taro Hirose debuted his #67 at the Red Wings’ summer development camp; Adam Erne will be the first Wing to wear #73, and Patrik Nemeth will go with #22.
New season.

Fil wants his old number back? Washed up except a very good defensive player with speed. Surely not a TOP 6 player anymore
