    Default The Quick NHL-Roster "Down-Up" (Wings: Zadina & McIlrath) !?!?

    Just curious.
    Does anybody understand (or speculate) why the Wings sent down Zadina, McIlrath, and Cholowski yesterday...
    Only to bring Zadina & McIlrath back up today.
    ???
    Cholowski... is still demoted (AFAIK).

    The GRGriffins are out in California these days.
    Zadina's interview, at least, suggest he never really was intended to leave the physical presence of the Wings-group.
    And I don't see any roster-cap juggling/re-distribution.

    I'm super-confused.


    (Cholowski has been a big -22... so he may be demoted for a longer-term... but obv not on Zadina & McIlrath)
    They certainly didn't play in the Griffins game last night.

    Daley, Abdelkader were activated from IR, but they were not on LTIR. So it's not to do with the Cap.

    Zadina said Yzerman called him to explain why the Red Wings sent him down. Zadina appreciated it, but wouldn't share with the media what Yzerman said.

    Blashill said, "In the end it was roster management that Steve should talk about and not me. Nothing big"

    Trade fall through, bonus money reasoning, potential injury not released (Athanasiou) are all possible.

    The easiest answer is cash savings for the Red Wings. If Zadina is in the minors, he's only getting paid 1 day of his $70,000 salary. If he's on the Red Wings roster, he gets paid 1 day of his $894,167 salary. The 2nd answer is cap room as every day that Zadina is not on the pro roster, the Red Wings are saving cap space for use later in the season.

    I think this has everything to do with the cap and creating space by keeping Zadina off the team for one day.

    Why not include Hronek in the moves then too?

    Zadina has "50 Player Standard Exemption" on his deal, don't Realllly understand that. But they have 23 player in the NHL (20+3IR players), but only 22 are counted. Some odd thing happening with Zadina's deal I guess why he was the one moved and not Hronek too.
