from Katie Strang of ESPN,
The good news for the Red Wings is that they should be a healthier team when they host the Bruins. On Tuesday, the Wings were without trade-deadline acquisition Erik Cole, Pavel Datsyuk and Riley Sheahan, and they lost Drew Miller early with that harrowing skate blade incident.
After the team's 2-1 shootout loss to the Ottawa Senators, Wings coach Mike Babcock said that he expects to have "more hands on deck" against the Bruins, so it's safe to assume that at least a few of those aforementioned players will return to the lineup. A critical two points are up for grabs.
And if Mrazek delivers another performance like he did on Tuesday, stopping 33 of 34 shots while under siege all night, it might be his job to lose heading into the playoffs.
