A Down Week

from Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press,

Stock down
Christian Djoos

It’s one thing to put up with his defensive liabilities when he’s offsetting the points surrendered with his own production, but Djoos had a rough week. It was his turnover that led to the fourth goal in Carolina, which nipped any chance of a comeback. He did set up Anthony Mantha’s power play goal at Columbus.

Robby Fabbri
He has generally had a good season, but Fabbri was another guy who didn’t fare well last week. He had no points, and was a minus-3. With Larkin sidelined by an upper-body injury, Fabbri slotted onto the top line, and was overmatched as the No. 1 center. With Larkin expected back this week, Fabbri should be able to return to being more of an offensive threat.

on the upside, St. James lists (paid) Zadina, Rasmussen and Namestnikov...

About Abel to Yzerman

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
