Is an All Blackhawks Line Forming in Detroit? We're here for it
There seems to be a fondness among the Detroit Red Wings for former Chicago Blackhawks at the moment.
Prior to the start of training camp, they have increased their efforts in recruiting and have signed Artem Anisimov.
DeBrincat-Anisimov-Kane first line let's go
What role does Anisimov play in the short-term Yzerplan? The Russian forward has been signed to a PTO with the team, as he isn't giving up on his dream of playing in the NHL once again, he achieved 36 points with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms last season for a 19-goal, 17-assist performance.
In some ways, it seems as though Yzerman might unintentionally be reuniting former linemates
Alex DeBrincat and Artem Anisimov through this move.
As another former Blackhawk recruited by Yzerman, the Center is another former Blackhawk who, along with Dominik Kubalik, has had some short-term success in his stint with the Red Wings so far.
The Red Wings have signed Artem Anisimov to a PTO. Anisimov had 19 goals and 17 assists with the Phantoms last season.
In his career, Anisimov has played 771 games in the NHL, of which his last game was in 2020-2021 with the Ottawa Senators. With the Chicago Blackhawks and the now-infamous Columbus Blue Jackets, he has managed to score 20 goals in four consecutive seasons.
