Detroit Red Wings players Filip Zadina and Thomas Vanek and coach Jeff Blashill talk after 4-2 preseason win at Little Caesars Arena, Sept. 20, 2018.
Detroit Red Wings defenseman Mike Green will miss the start of the season after fatigue led to blood work, which indicated he has a virus.
General manager Ken Holland told the Free Press Green “hasn’t had a lot of energy. He’s trying to see a doctor today or Monday.”
Early diagnosis is Green has a virus that is attacking his liver, but “we don’t really know the extent of exactly what he has got,” Holland said.
