Read somewhere that his knee is so bad the surgery needed to repair it would keep him out most of next year. It's going to be an interesting offseason for Detroit.

Is Lidstrom coming back? If not they could be in trouble next year.

They'll be fine without Rafalski (and even without Lidstrom too)... their GM is actually good at what he does... he's not a hack like Dougie and won't sign fuckups like Wallin and Huskins to ridiculous contracts.

Translation: Free agents actually want to go to Detroit.

 

[rares]

That too. Very good point, for sure.

That just frees up cap space for them to reload. They can get more for the $6+ freed up than what Rafi would be able to provide for them next season.

Maybe they want Heater?
