Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Patrolling crease Friday

Mrazek will tend the twine against the Lightning on Friday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

Analysis:

Mrazek's struggles -- just one win in his last seven contests -- have led coach Jeff Blashill to implement an even goalie split as the Wings close out their 2016-17 campaign, in which they're going to break their 25-year streak of making the playoffs. The netminder will face a limited Tampa Bay squad that is without key offensive talents Tyler Johnson (lower body) and Steven Stamkos (knee).
