On the Wings

Don’t expect to see Steve Yzerman play both games of a back-to-back series. As of right now, he isn’t planning on playing consecutively much, if at all, in the 14 back-to-back games the Wings have this season. I think this is a good decison, especially since Yzerman is really taking a risk in playing at all this year. His knee can’t take a whole season of grinding and they need him more for the playoffs anyway. He probably won’t play much center, unless the Wings use a trapping system (NO!) which would put less stress on his legs. This is most likely The Captain’s last year.
