Next Game
Availability
Joe Veleno was able to light the lamp for the Red Wings Saturday night, scoring the team's lone goal in a 4-1 loss to the Bruins.
Fantasy Impact
Veleno has had a nose for the net of late for the Red Wings, scoring goals in four of the team's last five games. The 23-year-old has been a surprising contributor for head coach Derek Lalonde to begin the season, notching six points (five goals, one assist) in nine games so far this season.
Joe Veleno netted the fifth of seven goals Detroit put up in a 10-7 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday. He finished the game with a goal, an assist, a plus-1 rating one shot, two hits and one block.
Fantasy Impact
Joe Veleno was chasing down a puck in the corner and decided to take a shot from a brutal angle. The puck took a funny bounce and got behind Jack Campbell's short side. It was his fifth goal and ninth point of the year.
