“He didn’t finish the game last night,” Blashill said. “Today, we weren’t going to push it at all, and then we’ll see where he’s at tomorrow. But I won’t know any answers on that until tomorrow."

Ericsson scored his second goal of the season, tying the game, 1-1, in the second period Friday. The Red Wings went on to lose to the Avalanche, 3-2 in a shootout at Joe Louis Arena.

Ericsson has two goals and seven assists for nine points and is a plus-8 in 50 games for the Wings…
