Well, the Olympics are in full swing (did you hear about Team USA??!?) and the Red Wings are dormant. Sort of. The Wings, as a whole, return to action on March 1st - but guys like Nicklas Lidstrom, Johan Franzen, Henrik Zetterberg, Niklas Kronwall, Brian Rafalski, Pavel Datsyuk, Valtteri Filppula, and Griffins Ole-Kristian Tollefsen and Sergei Kolosov, won't get much of a "break." 

This is the fourth Olympics that NHL players are participating in. Arguably, there's never been a team that needed this time to recover as badly as the Red Wings need it right now -- despite the seven Olympians who aren't doing much resting. In two of the three prior Olympic years, the Wings were eventual Cup Champs - with only the Hurricanes interrupting that awesome trend. Let's take a peek at the Wings record at the Olympic Break, shall we?:

2010 :: 28-21-12 (68 points in 61 games) :: Eventual Stanley Cup Champion: ???
2006 :: 39-13-5 (83 points in 57 games) :: Eventual Stanley Cup Champion: Carolina Hurricanes
2002 :: 41-11-6-2 (90 points in 60 games) :: Eventual Stanley Cup Champion: DETROIT RED WINGS
1998 :: 31-15-12 (74 points in 58 games) :: Eventual Stanley Cup Champion: DETROIT RED WINGS

Make sure you keep up with Motown Wings, as Chris Hollis is doing a fantastic job tracking all the Red Wings in these Games. After the preliminary rounds, Hollis notes that Rafalski is leading the way offensively:
1. Brian Rafalski (USA) 4 goals, 1 assist, 5 points
2. Pavel Datsyuk (RUS) 1 goal, 2 assists, 3 points
3. Johan Franzen (SWE) 1 goal, 1 assist, 2 points
4. Valtteri Filppula (FIN) 1 goal
5. Niklas Kronwall (SWE) +2
6. Nicklas LIdstrom (SWE) +1
7. Henrik Zetterberg (SWE) Even
8. Ole-Kristian Tollefsen (NOR) -2
9. Sergei Kolosov (BLR) -2
