Detroit Red Wings coach Jeff Blashill on what has gone right in preseason, opportunity in last two games at Little Caesars Arena on Sept. 27, 2018.
The weekend offers a last chance for prospects to make their case for sticking with the Detroit Red Wings.
Filip Zadina, Dennis Cholowski, Libor Sulak, Filip Hronek and Joe Hicketts are among the players on the roster for Friday’s game at Toronto (7:30 p.m., NHL Network). Wings coach Jeff Blashill and Toronto Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock have agreed to field lineups heavy on NHL regulars that night, though the Wings will have a young defense because of injuries to veterans.
