Andrew Copp Placed On Injured Reserve
Detroit Red Wings center Andrew Copp (undisclosed) was placed on the injured reserve on Monday. In a corresponding move, the Red Wings promoted forward Sheldon Dries from the AHL. Copp was unable to play on Sunday and will now miss at least the next two contests. However, the 30-year-old could face an extended absence. Before the injury, Copp tallied three helpers over his previous four contests, including one on the power-play. Across 56 total games this season, Copp has scored 10 goals and added 13 helpers. He has tallied 35 blocked shots and added 68 shots on goal. While Copp is sidelined, Elmer Soderblom could have an increased role in the offense, and Sheldon Dries should also have a role in the bottom six. In addition to Copp, the Red Wings will also be without forward Michael Rasmussen (upper body) during their next contest as well.
