The Red Wings sent Cross Hanas, Elmer Soderblom, Simon Edvinsson and Jonatan Berggren to Grand Rapids, and Nate Danielson will be returned to his Brandon Wheat Kings junior team. (Detroit Hockey Now)
A solid rookie season didn't save forward Jonatan Berggren from being assigned to the minors as the Detroit Red Wings trimmed their roster to 23 men. (Detroit Free Press)
With Aston-Reese in the fold, the Wings assigned forwards Jonatan Berggren, Cross Hanas and Elmer Soderblom and defenseman Simon Edvinsson to the AHL's Grand Rapids Griffins. (The Detroit News)
Jonatan Berggren, Simon Edvinsson, Cross Hanas and Elmer Soderblom return to the Griffins.
Edvinsson has looked NHL-ready for much of the preseason, even in spite of his three-penalty outing Sunday. The problem is that he has seven established NHL defenders in front of him. (The Athletic)
The Red Wings’ crowded blue line means Detroit doesn’t have a spot for Edvinsson unless he beats out a veteran. But he looks like someone who can help the team this season whenever the time and need arrive. (The Athletic)
If you were hoping for a young forward to kick the door down and make the opening night roster, nothing I saw in Traverse City would indicate anything trending in that direction. (The Athletic)
Detroit Red Wings coach Derek Lalonde has probably gone through several scraps of paper scribbling potential line combinations following a flurry of activity by general manager Steve Yzerman the past two weeks. (MLive)
While we won’t get to see Lalonde’s ideations until the Red Wings hit the ice for training camp, we don’t have to wait that long to start running through the same possibilities he surely is thinking about now. (The Athletic)
The calendar is flipping to June, so the rumors, trade proposals and free agent news around the NHL is going to increase daily. That being said, the Red Wings are likely to be active this offseason. (The Detroit News)
Berggren skated in 67 games with Detroit and ranked among the NHL's rookie leaders with 15 goals (7th), 28 points (14th), five power play goals (T3rd), and nine power play points (T7th). (DetroitRedWings.com)
