Jonathan Ericsson appears ready to return to the Red Wings lineup tonight in Chicago.
Ericsson has missed the last three games after stepping on a puck and slamming into the boards during a practice in Columbus, hurting his hip.
When Ericsson returns, it’s likely Jakub Kindl will become the odd man out of the lineup.
The Wings face a tough test playing the Blackhawks, who’ve yet to lose a game this season (5-0-0) and look as sharp in all areas as any team in this shortened NHL schedule.
