RALEIGH, N.C. -- The Detroit Red Wings are losing defensemen left and right.

They will be without second-leading scorer Mike Green tonight when they take on the Carolina Hurricanes (7, FS-Plus) at PNC Arena. Green got hit by Anaheim's Ryan Kesler (Livonia) on Saturday, but coach Jeff Blashill said the injury “has been an ongoing thing that we just continue to evaluate.

“I don’t see him playing on this trip.”

That includes Tuesday at Tampa Bay and Friday at Florida.

The Wings also are without Alexey Marchenko, whose shoulder injury has put him on injured reserve.
