Hicketts are among the players on the roster for Friday’s game at Toronto
Wings coach Jeff Blashill and Toronto Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock have agreed to field lineups heavy on NHL regulars that night, though the Wings will have a young defense because of injuries to veterans.
Of the prospects competing to stick around when the season begins next week, Cholowski has looked especially good. He, Sulak, Hronek and Hicketts all have played significant minutes as veterans Mike Green, Trevor Daley, Danny DeKeyser and Jonathan Ericsson are sidelined by injuries. Cholowski, Sulak and Hicketts each have played in five games and Hronek, four.
The final 23-man roster has to be submitted by 5 p.m. Tuesday.
We will probably have to keep 3 rookies on defense to start the season. i suspect, Cholo, Hicketts and Hronek are the leaders...with Sulak very close...
