    Lay off the wings for awhile?

    Once again the injury bug is killing Detroit. Tonight they lost their starting goalie Jimmy Howard due to bruised knee and Thomas Holmstrom cuz of a broken hand.

    For those of you who dont know the wings are now missing 6 starters (all for a significant amount of time):

    Datsyuk
    Holmstrom
    Modano
    Cleary
    Stuart
    Howard


    I think ill lay off the wings for abit till they heal up...Or just bet against em?

    Idk they just beat the jackets and now play them again on Saturday

    I would say it's either Detroit (even with the injuries) or no play.

    They just lost to the Jackets... Howard may be back for tomorrow's game so stay tuned. The kid is tough and won't want to be watching his injury riddled team lose from the pressbox.

    I don't think anyone should be betting DET at this time because even though they are still a top team, you have to be considering all the injuries and the fact that all their goalies seem to be struggling. Moreover, the books aren't going to treat them any different so it isn't going to be worth it to bet them at the odds because they are still going to get too much respect.

    God bless.

    Unfortunately I think staying off Wings games for awhile is the right move (hard for me, lol)

    They're still capable of winning every night, so I wouldn't bet against them, but the injuries are just piling up too fast. Datsyuk isn't too far from returning though, so that's good.

    Injuries are piling up for these oldtimers........I feel a cold streak coming and possibly good value fading

    They got good value @ +160. I dont know is the jackets will beat the wings twice in a row, but it could be a toss up with all the injuries to key players in Detroit

    Detroit probably wins but there's no value in taking them. I'd stay away from the game since there's so many others.
