Jeff Blashill pointed out a truth about the Detroit Red Wings that will stand past the trade deadline; it's also one which doesn't bode particularly well for the last 20 games.
"Monday, the deadline will be over, but we’re going to have a whole bunch of the same guys here," he said after yet another disappointing start led to a disappointing finale to a disappointing trip.
The Wings (25-30-7) returned home Sunday morning on a red-eye from Seattle, digesting a 4-2 loss to one of the worst teams in the NHL, leaving the Wings with seven losses in their past eight games.
