Red Wings' Thomas Vanek: Will not play Tuesday

Vanek (lower body) didn't travel with the team to Boston, and won't play in Tuesday's game, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Analysis:

With 31 points in 36 games, Vanek has exceeded most expectations so far this year. His absence will likely give Luke Glendening a bump in minutes. The 33-year-old will have another chance to return Wednesday against Toronto.
