Custance’s NHL Source: Zetterberg Out At Least Two Weeks

Update (11:10 AM): Elliotte Friedman on Twitter:

Red Wings announce Zetterberg out at least 2 weeks with “slight” shoulder separation

So there’s the official announcement from the team. Awesome. Could have been worse, but the level of suck on this one is still off the charts.

They’ll need to call someone up for this weekend. I have no idea who. Mursak’s been hot, so he’s a possibility. Emmerton’s a center, but Megan said “no way” last night. McGrath can play center, but he’s had a bad season so I’d call that unlikely. Tatar is off to the WJCs, but was never likely anyway.

Maybe Jeremy Williams? – Matt

Craig Custance is on the ball, relatively speaking, with the MRI results: he reports that Hank will be out at least two weeks with a slightly separated shoulder. Nothing official from the team, but this is the best we’ve got for now. (via A2Y comments)

If this is true, it sure as heck beats what it could have been.

    So, who gets the call up? Williams? Mursak? McGrath?

    Too bad Tatar's gone for the World Juniors…

    Or maybe Emmerton's on tap?

    No one will be called up from the looks of it. Helm will be back. Now, the real question is who will be called up for Sunday once someone else gets injured?
