Richards tallied a pair of assists in Saturday's 5-1 rout of the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Father Time has not been kind to the 11-time 60-plus point center, as these were just his 14th and 15th points in 38 games this season. Still, Richards provides a winning pedigree and a ton of experience to a Red Wings squad ripe with young talent -- something that is sure to come in handy should Detroit muscle their way into the postseason come April.
