Wings forward Johan Franzen is back in the Wings lineup tonight after spending time with his wife Cecilia who just gave birth to their first child. A baby boy named Eddie Bo Franzen.

“She liked Eddie, and Bo is her dad’s name. Usually we have three names back home (in Sweden),” Franzen said. “It was fun, something else.”

Franzen looks to end his 12 game scoring drought when the Wings take on the Anaheim Ducks from the Honda Center.

Someone who won’t be back is defenseman Brian Rafalski who is still nursing back spasms. He is also questionable for Thursday’s game against San Jose.

Here are tonight’s possible lines according to Ansar Khan of Mlive.com

Filppula-Modano-Holmstrom
