Red Wings Impress in Olympic Break, Prospects Hurt
The Red Wings head into the Olympic break with momentum from a solid run, even if their final game didn't go perfectly, showing the grit that's got Detroit fans dreaming of playoffs again. Captain Dylan Larkin and others are off to Italy representing their countries, but whispers on prospect injuries could test the farm system's depth when the NHL resumes. With the league pausing for two weeks, Steve Yzerman's crew faces a real test to return fresh and avoid last year's post-tournament hangover.
