Status report
Hurricanes coach Rob Brind'Amour said Trocheck, a forward, will be out "longer than hoped" but didn't estimate when he could return. … The Red Wings used 11 forwards and seven defensemen in a 6-4 win against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday, but could return to a normal configuration by replacing Stecher with Brome.
