Red Wings coach Jeff Blashill held a media conference call today via Zoom:
Coach Blashill joining us via zoom, his first day out of quarantine will be tomorrow #LGRW— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) December 26, 2021
Coach says today’s “practice” was 10 skaters and a goalie, just trying to get guys who are healthy out on the ice #LGRW— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) December 26, 2021
Coach Blashill anticipates 7 forwards, 5 D and a goalie for tomorrow’s practice #LGRW— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) December 26, 2021
Coach Blash says he does not know when their next game is. His understanding is they’re tentatively planning for the 29th against the Islanders, but he’s unsure. #LGRW— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) December 26, 2021
Coach when asked if they’d be ready Wednesday, “there will be challenges, but I know the Islanders won’t care. They’ve faced their own challenges. If the league says the right thing to do is play the game, then we’ll go and play a hockey game. I don’t let anything be an excuse.”— Carley Johnston (@carleykjohnston) December 26, 2021
