Detroit – The Red Wings acquired forward Robby Fabbri late in the evening of Nov. 6, after another discouraging loss to the New York Rangers.
The loss was the Wings’ 12th in 13 games, and nothing was looking good with the roster. Hope was slipping away, the losses were one-sided, and the immediate future looked bleak.
Since Fabbri has put on a Wings’ sweater – acquired from St. Louis for forward Jacob de la Rose – they’ve earned a point in all five games.
