How Much Does Mike Green Impact the Detroit Red Wings Lineup?

This past summer, the Detroit Red Wings made a move to bring back right defenseman Mike Green on a two-year contract worth around $5 million per season. Green’s resigning was favored by some fans. However, there were some who were not entirely pleased with the move.

Green’s impact this season is substantial, his veteran presence simply helps the younger players around him develop, it is apparent that he holds leadership and when he talks, they listen.

Overall, this season Green has totaled 17 total points, 3 goals and 14 assists for the Red Wings.
