Tweets from Friday’s Red Wings preseason practice: It’s an NHL-heavy lineup skating at LCA

The Detroit Red Wings hit the ice at Little Caesars Arena’s BELFOR Training Center to prepare for their 4th and final exhibition game, an evening tilt against the Columbus Blue Jackets tomorrow evening (7 PM EDT start on Detroit SportsNet, WWJ 950). The Red Wings bolstered their preseason record to 2-0-and-1 with a 3-2 overtime victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night…

Anyway, the Red Wings hit the ice at the BELFOR at 11:30, and MLive’s Ansar Khan reported that the Wings dressed an NHL-heavy group today (Grand Rapids’ players are heading to Toledo to play the Cleveland Monsters at the Huntington Center tomorrow and Sunday):

D pairs are rotating right now. Not sure if Bernard-Docker was out there at the start. The first group, consist mostly of @griffinshockey players, skated earlier. https://t.co/E42MySadNG

Larkin rotating in on the Kasper line. Doesn’t appear ready for tomorrow but we’ll see what McLellan says. https://t.co/E42MySadNG

Red Wings are practicing with 20 skaters today:

Forwards (13): DeBrincat, Copp, Raymond, Larkin, Finnie, Kasper, Arvidsson, Danielson, MBN, Appleton, Compher, Rasmussen, Kolesar

Defense (7): Seider, Edvinsson, Faulk, Albert, ASP, Anton, Chiarot

Not sure where JBD is

It would be surprising if the Red Wings kept both of ASP and Anton unless both will have consistent roles, when either could go play huge minutes in GR. But interesting as Detroit prepares for final preseason game tomorrow
