ST. PAUL, Minn. — They haven't moved in together because one finds the other one on the grumpy side, but professionally, they couldn't be happier to be working together.
Gemel and Givani Smith were both on the Detroit Red Wings' lineup roster posted Monday morning at XCel Energy Center for the first time since the Wings claimed Gemel off waivers Jan. 19. Teammates were excited, having seen over the past month how close the two are.
"What sticks out right away is the relationship they have, the bond they have as brothers," captain Dylan Larkin said.
