Fischer released from hospital

Jiri Fischer was released from the hospital today and is home, resting comfortably. He has also been placed on IR (injured reserved). Detroit has called up defenseman Kyle Quincey from the Grand Rapids Griffins.

Fans wishing to send Get Well wishes to Fischer are asked to send cards to:

Jiri Fischer
Detroit Red Wings
Joe Louis Arena
600 Civic Center Drive
Detroit, MI 48226

In lieu of flowers, the Red Wings ask that fans consider making a donation to the Children’s Hospital of Michigan Wish Club. Fischer has served as the team spokesman for this initiative during the past five years and is a staunch supporter of Children’s Hospital. To make a donation to the Wish Club, fans can call 313-745-5024.

In addition, fans who would like to sign a 3′ X 4′ Get Well card for Fischer can do so beginning at 6 p.m. today at Hockeytown Cafe in downtown Detroit and Hockeytown Authentics in Troy.

Fans attending tomorrow evening’s Red Wings vs. Colorado Avalanche game will also have the opportunity to sign 4′ X 8′ Get Well cards which will be located on the concourse at Joe Louis Arena.

Thank you for your continued support of Jiri and the Red Wings.

    I suppose this is just something more to add to the list of things Detroit Red Wings fans to be thankful for this year!

    Have a wonderful and festive holiday season, Christy.

    (yea… real thankful that Henne and Coach Carr can debate for 3 more seconds back on the clock for a last second touchdown. Ugh!)
