Why Steve Yzerman should keep Marc Staal with Detroit Red Wings past 1,000-game milestone

Marc Staal recalled a funny moment recently: The Detroit Red Wings were playing the Carolina Hurricanes, and he found himself battling his brother, Jordan Staal, in a corner. An official blew his whistle, and Marc was assessed a holding call, much to Jordan's delight.

"It was a bad penalty, bad call," Staal said. "He was laughing in my ear as he was falling down. That tells you what he thought about the call, too."
