| 2011 Training Camp Notes |
|---|
The Wings spent the summer retooling after the losses of all-star defenseman Brian Rafalski, grind-liner Kris Draper and 400 game winner Chris Osgood. Added to the roster are blueliner's Ian White and Mike Commodore and former Wing Ty Conklin between the pipes. Speedy Jan Mursak and cerebral Cory Emmerton are slated to graduate from Grand Rapids into the lineup. Detroit has also invited Fabian Brunnstrom and Ryan Johnson to camp in the hopes they can compete for a spot.
Sixty-Six players have been confirmed as coming to camp including eight try-outs. The players range in size from 6'4 (Mike Commodore, Jonathan Ericsson and Richard Nedomlel) to 5'8 (Chris Conner) and in weight from 235 lbs (Todd Bertuzzi) to 162 lbs (Petr Mrazek). Broken up by position, the roster includes 21 blueliners, 8 goaltenders, and 37 forwards. Trevor Parkes had the most goals on the roster last year with 33 for Montreal (QMJHL), while Henrik Zetterberg had the most points with 80. |
