from Dana Wakiji of the Wings website,
In terms of the health of the Red Wings veteran defensemen this season, it has bordered on ridiculous.
From having to start the year with four rookie defensemen due to illness and injuries to now losing Mike Green again just as Trevor Daley returns to the lineup, it's been tough back on the blue line.
"Mike Green is out tonight, he's had a reactivation of the virus that he had earlier in the season," Wings coach Jeff Blashill said. "Right now, we expect him to be out 7-10 days. We'll re-evaluate when we get back home. He's got an appointment set up and we'll see where it goes from there. I don't have any more information than that."
Green did practice with the team Monday in Arizona.
"It's something we've looked at over the last couple weeks," Blashill said. "We've tried to manage some of the fatigue. Last night, it just got a little bit worse."
Below, watch Kronwall after today's skate and I will add more if they become available.
