The Detroit Red Wings have had their fair share of injuries this season, with several players currently on the injury list.
The team has been dealing with various injuries to key players throughout the season, which has made it challenging for them to perform at their best.
Detroit Red Wings injury report
Forward Adam Erne: Day-to-day with lower body injury
One of the most recent injuries is to left winger Adam Erne, who is currently listed as day-to-day with a lower-body injury.
Erne has been an important player this season, having recorded 8 goals and 8 assists in 52 games. His absence from the team will be felt, especially as the Red Wings continue to battle for a playoff spot.
Defenseman Simon Edvinsson: Day-to-day with a lower body injury
Another player who is day-to-day with a lower-body injury is defenseman Simon Edvinsson.
Edvinsson was Detroit's first-round pick in the 2021 NHL draft and has been a promising addition to the team's defensive unit. However, he has only played in two games this season and hasn't been able to contribute yet.
Center Robby Fabbri: April 10 with a lower-body injury
Center Robby Fabbri is also out of action, having sustained a lower-body injury on March 20.
He is expected to be out until at least April 10, which means the Red Wings will be without one of their top forwards for the next few games. He has scored 7 goals in 28 games with 9 assists.
Defenseman Ben Chiarot: March 31 with an undisclosed injury
Defenseman Ben Chiarot has been out of action since March 16 with an undisclosed injury.
He is expected to be out until at least March 31, which means the Detroit Red Wings will be without one of their key defenders for the next few games.
Center Michael Rasmussen: July 15 with a knee injury
Center Michael Rasmussen has been on the injured reserve list since March 5 due to a knee injury.
He is expected to be out until at least July 15, which means he will miss the remainder of the regular season. Rasmussen has scored 5 goals and 13 assists in 67 games this season.
Defenseman Mark Pysyk: September 15 with an achilles injury
Defenseman Mark Pysyk has been out of action since February 5 with an achilles injury.
He is expected to be out until at least September 15, which means he will miss the season. Pysyk has not played a single game this season or with the Red Wings.
Injuries are a part of the game, but Detroit will need to find a way to cope without some of their key players. With the playoffs in sight, they will need to rely on their depth and resilience to make a push for a playoff spot.
