Jimmy Howard will represent the Detroit Red Wings in the all-star game, and everyone else will get a total of 9 days off to recharge, and clear their heads before they try and ride out the remainder of the season.
The Wings are in the midst of one of their worst seasons in the last 30 years. Losses are coming in the bunches and wins are as sparse as they’ve been since the early 1980s. The team has only won four games over their last nineteen, not good… They are currently dead last in the NHL standings at the moment.
