Training Camp 2010

2010 Training Camp Notes
After an uncharacteristically long summer off to recharge, the Detroit Wings take to the ice at training camp rested up and reloaded for another long foray into the postseason. Key departures include blueliners Andreas Lilja and Brett Lebda, as well as forward Jason Williams. In their places, the team added first ballot hall of famer and Michigan Native Mike Modano to be the third line center, and hard rock defenseman Ruslan Salei. The team also shed several long term minor leaguers and restocked their farm club, bringing in some notable free agents including Valtteri Filppula's older brother Ilari on a one year pact.

The camp roster is made up of 64 players, broken down to include 6 goaltenders, 20 defenseman, and 38 forwards. They range in size from 5'10 (several players to 6'4 (Ericsson and Kolosov) and from 162 pounds (netminder Mrazek) to 235 pounds (Todd Bertuzzi). The leading scorer is Willie Coetzee with 81 points on the season for the WHL Red Deer Rebels, and he is also the leading goal scorer with 29. Coetzee was tied with 2010 draft choice Brooks Macek for the lead in assists with 52. The most penalized player invited to camp is AHL veteran Greg "Ammo" Amadio with 171 on the season, closely followed by Mitchell "Dirty Harry" Callahan with 165.
