Yet another Red Wings player bitten by the injury bug

The only negative aspect about the fast start for the Detroit Red Wings so far is that they're once again without forward Robby Fabbri, who suffered a lower body injury in his team's season opener against New Jersey (unrelated to his two previous ACL tears). He'll be on the shelf for at least a month. 

But now, he's getting some company of fellow injured players. Forward Klim Kostin hasn't played the last two games thanks to being banged up, and now veteran defenseman Jeff Petry has been listed as unavailable for tonight's game against the Seattle Kraken.

He's played in four games so far in his first year with his hometown Red Wings, racking up a pair of assists. According to head coach Derek Lalonde, should both players be unavailable for Thursday's game against the Winnipeg Jets, they could look to call up a player from the AHL affiliate Grand Rapids Griffins. 

Per Ansar Khan of MLive, the Red Wings line combinations for tonight's game are as follows: 

Alex DeBrincat - Dylan Larkin - Lucas Raymond
Michael Rasmussen - J.T. Compher - Andrew Copp
David Perron - Joe Veleno - Daniel Sprong
Jonatan Berggren - Austin Czarnik - Christian Fischer

Jake Walman - Moritz Seider
Ben Chiarot - Justin Holl
Olli Maatta - Shayne Gostisbehere
