Injury bug once again bites the Red Wings

In what was billed as a pair of must-win games for the Detroit Red Wings, they were instead manhandled and outclassed in nearly every facet against the Atlantic Division rival Ottawa Senators. 

And having already lost a key member of the roster in forward Michael Rasmussen this past weekend, they're now without a key piece of the back end. 

Defenseman Filip Hronek was injured at some point during tonight's game, and it was announced by the team that he won't be returning to action.

As of right now, the Senators have a comfortable 6-1 lead over Detroit early in the third period, and barring a miracle comeback, will be tied with Detroit in the standings by the end of the evening.
