As the trade deadline vastly approaches, the Detroit Red Wings will have many decisions to make, Nick Jensen being one of them. The 28-year-old defenceman was never a top prospect type defender in the Wings system.
He’s never been too flashy although he is an above average skater. He picks and chooses his spots to pinch in the offensive zone and rarely puts himself out of position. He plays like a stay at home defenceman, but his skating ability would allow him to rush the puck a bit more often if he chose to do so.
