The Wings are in the midst of a war of attrition coming down the final stretch with bodies seeming to drop by the double with each game. Missing from tonight’s lineup after injuries in the game against Buffalo were Frans Nielsen and Jonathan Ericsson who had barely just returned. As a result we saw the return of Martin Frk to the lineup, and the debut of Jake Chelios, son of Chris. The Wings once again rostered an 11 forward, 7 defenseman lineup. Between the pipes Bernier returned to the net with Howard having started last night against Buffalo.
