Kronwall (lower body) is likely to suit up against the Blue Jackets on Saturday.
It's important for the Swede to rejoin the lineup, as the Red Wings have lost a different veteran blueliner in Jonathan Ericsson (wrist) for 6-to-8 weeks. Kronwall has only pitched in five points through 30 games, thus keeping his fantasy value at a minimum, but he's a proven shot blocker who tends to outmuscle the opposition and that should help the club to some degree.
