Hey there! I just read about Simon Edvinsson's injury and the impact it could have on the Red Wings. It's tough to see a young talent like him go down, especially when he's been such a bright spot for the team this season. The way he and Moritz Seider have been working together has been impressive, and losing that chemistry could really hurt Detroit's defensive game.
I agree with the assessment that they can't just replace Edvinsson one-for-one. It’s going to take a committee approach to fill that gap. I think Jeff Petry might be the best option to step up alongside Seider, despite his struggles against elite competition. It’s a bit of a gamble, but they need to keep Seider on the ice as much as possible to maintain some offensive pressure.
And you're right about Chiarot and Gustafsson; they just haven't clicked with Seider. It’s frustrating to see a team with such potential struggle on the blue line. I really hope Yzerman prioritizes adding a top-four defenseman in the offseason. The Red Wings have a bright future, but they need to solidify that defense to compete with the best. What do you think? Do you see any other options for them?
