The Red Wings are going to be sellers yet again in this years upcoming deadline, and there are multiple players that are likely to be moved by April 12th. One name that has come up repeatedly is veteran forward Bobby Ryan. This is the first part in a two part series of where Bobby Ryan

There’s no doubt that Detroit Red Wings goaltender Thomas Greiss has been the victim of some pretty brutal games this season. A lack of scoring as well as a team decimated early by Covid Protocol and injuries didn’t help matters. It can also be agreed on that he’s had his fair share of struggles, too.

Much has been written about Detroit Red Wings forward Luke Glendening.  Great faceoff guy. Penalty kill extraordinaire. Very reasonable cap hit. So it’s no surprise when TSN’s Frank Seravelli writes that the Oilers are targeting a very specific type of forward : That’s a right shot centre who can take faceoffs, and win them on
