Kyle Quincey earned a five-minute game misconduct major for the hit, so there was possibility of discipline from the get-go. He'll serve the suspension Wednesday and will be eligible to return Thursday. (Updated 04/02/2012).
04/01/2012 18:55 Hudler lifts Wings to SO win vs. Panthers
Jiri Hudler scored with 14:30 remaining in the third period and again in a shootout to help the Detroit Red Wings beat the Florida Panthers 2-1 on Sunday.
Once seen as an emerging offensive blueliner after posting a breakout season in Los Angeles in 2008-09 (38 points in 72 games), Quincey has not done a lot to distinguish himself since being acquired by the Avs the following season. Last year, he had just a single assist in 21 games before suffering a shoulder injury that required season-ending surgery. Quincey should be ready to go by the time training camp arrives, but his fantasy value is very much in question at this point. Assuming he's healthy, he should be given a shot to resume his top-four role for the Avs this season, though he will need to establish himself quickly. (Updated 10/4/11)
