Red Wings' Niklas Kronwall: Back in action Tuesday

Kronwall (knee) will play Tuesday against Carolina after missing the team's last game due to mandated rest, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

Analysis:

With the Wings scheduled to play three games in as many days, the team opted to hold Kronwall out of Monday's contest as a cautionary measure. Once a go-to fantasy blueliner, Kronwall's decline has been abrupt. Having missed 26 games through injury, Kronwall has tallied just one goal and 11 assists in 50 games this season.
