Abdelkader (hand) practiced Monday for the first time since last week, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports. Abdelkader has been a surprisingly productive offensive player this season, with a career-high 23 goals and 44 points. The Red Wings will need all hands on deck to upset the Lightning, and Abdelkader should be back for Game 1 on Thursday.
