<p>Fabbri has already suffered 3 ACL injuries in his career, most recently around a year ago. The forward only began his season in January after months of rehab.</p>



<p>Now in his fourth season in Detroit, Fabbri has not played more than 56 games since his rookie season. Despite his unfortunate injury luck, Fabbri remains a productive player, with 49 goals and 96 points in his 174 games for the Red Wings.</p><div class="injected-ad injected-video" data-nn-ad-tech-injection-count="0" data-nn-ad-tech-max-gap="130" data-nn-ad-tech-current-gap="147"></div>



<p>The Red Wings had expected to contend for postseason hockey after making offseason additions like David Perron, Olli Maata, and Andrew Copp.</p>



<p>At the trade deadline, though, the Red Wings dealt Tyler Bertuzzi to the Boston Bruins and saw a deal for Flyers winger James van Riemsdyk fall through.</p>



<p>In the meantime, they have fallen into an 0-6 slump that sees them far out of the Eastern Conference’s last wild card berth.</p>



<p>The Red Wings and the Blackhawks are tied 2-2 through two periods.</p>
