Player Notes

  • Set to face Kings
    Sorokin was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, per Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News, indicating he will protect the home net Saturday against the Kings.

    Advice: Sorokin is coming off a 32-save effort in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to San Jose. He has supplied a 6-4-6 record this season with a 3.19 GAA and a .911 save percentage over 16 appearances. The Kings have won 11 straight road games to open the 2023-24 campaign and rank first in the league with 3.87 goals per game. Rotowire.com 6 minutes ago
  • Not playing Saturday
    Compher (soreness) won't be in the lineup versus Ottawa on Saturday, Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site reports.

    Advice: Compher practiced Friday after sitting out Thursday's game against San Jose, but he is still not healthy enough to return. Compher has been solid for the Red Wings this season, picking up six goals and 19 points in 24 games. The Red Wings play in Dallas on Monday and Compher could be in line to return to action.

  • Could return Sunday
    Laine (illness) could be back in the lineup Sunday versus Florida, per Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.

    Advice: Laine has missed the last three games. It has been a tough season for Laine, who was also a healthy scratch Nov. 19 for his ineffective play. He has five goals and seven points in 16 games this season. Rotowire.com 27 minutes ago

The 24-year-old Soderblom has provided a 2-8-1 record this season with a 3.62 GAA and an .884 save percentage in 12 appearances.
