In Red Wings Land
Here’s why the Red Wings should retire Sergei Fedorov’s No. 91 | Freep
Fedorov spent 13 seasons with the Wings and ended his time in Detroit in the top 10 in most offensive categories. His 400 goals are fourth in franchise history, behind Howe, Yzerman and Delvecchio. Fedorov fares slightly worse in assists (554), ranking seventh behind Yzerman, Howe, Lidstrom, Delvecchio, Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk. The combo is still enough to put him at sixth in Red Wings career points (954), ahead of Datsyuk and Lindsay, among others.
I know the Red Wings’ fan base is divided when it comes to retiring #91. I, however, have always been on the side of seeing Sergei Fedorov’s number raised to the rafters. Will it happen? I think it will eventually go up. When? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Should the Red Wings retire Sergei Fedorov’s #91?

FIVE BARGAIN-BIN DEFENSEMEN WHO COULD BE HOT COMMODITIES COME DEADLINE DAY | The Hockey News
Nick Jensen, Detroit Red Wings
This might come down to whether or not Jensen signs an extension before the deadline. He hasn’t received much fanfare this season for his play in Detroit — or any, really — but the 28-year-old has made the most of his opportunity this season with the Red Wings. A second-pairing rearguard through his first two seasons in the NHL, Jensen has stepped into top-pairing minutes this season and has been more successful than most might realize.
Do the right thing, Kenny.
