From The Hockey News Archives: Detroit’s Fearless Leader Still Has It

In his 18th NHL season, Steve Yzerman has still got it. He has been on a point-a-game pace since returning from knee surgery Dec. 2 (11 goals, 33 points in 33 games) and it has been during the past two months, as Yzerman has rounded into form, that the Red Wings have re-established themselves as a force. Yzerman leads Wing forwards in ice time, averaging 22:33 per game. And despite missing two months, he is already second in blocked shots with 33; only Kirk Maltby, with 36, has more.
