NHL Power Rankings: Chicago Blackhawks Tumble On Skid

24. Detroit Red Wings

Previous: No. 17

A fast start is slowly deteriorating back into the expected situation for Detroit. The Wings can get back to .500 tonight with a home game against lowly Arizona. It’s certainly interesting that this team’s leading scorer is not one of its forwards — young or veteran — but instead defenseman Mike Green, who carries 11 points in 12 games. Granted, 10 of those are assists, but you’ll take what you can get from a notably rough blue line.
