Red Wings Call Up Doug Janik; then assign him

[Anthony19]

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Red Wings on Thursday recalled defenseman Doug Janik from the Grand Rapids Griffins.

Janik, 30, makes his second trip to Detroit this season after logging a seven-game stint in late-October when he went scoreless with seven penalty minutes, eight shots, a minus-two rating and an average ice time of 13:13.

A 10-year veteran and alternate captain of the Griffins, Janik shows 17 points (4-13—17), 55 PIM and ranks sixth on the team with a plus-6 rating through 46 games with Grand Rapids.

Janik will be available for action Friday night when the Red Wings host the Edmonton Oilers at 7:30 p.m. EST.

Sounds like a dude i know got called up to the Kings, and didn't even practice and he was a legit fighter

[BritishRedWing]

Word must have got to Holland that he has dropped the gloves before.
"Oh no, we can't have that! Send him back down at once!"

Does he know fighting technique yet? I don't think so. Last time I remember him he looked terrible against Colorado.
