GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - The Detroit Red Wings on Saturday recalled defenseman Simon Edvinsson from the Grand Rapids Griffins.
Edvinsson, the former sixth overall pick in 2021, has notched 16 points (6-10-16) and 20 penalty minutes in 25 games with the Griffins this season. The 6-foot-6 defenseman enjoyed a seven-game point streak (3-7-10) from Nov. 18-Dec. 8, which is tied for the longest run by a Griffin this campaign. Edvinsson exploded for his first two-goal game in North America on Dec. 1 against Milwaukee and logged two assists in consecutive contests from Nov. 18-24. In addition to ranking third on the team in points, Edvinsson is tied for fourth among AHL defensemen with six goals and tied for fifth with two power-play tallies. In 2022-23 during his rookie campaign in North America, Edvinsson totaled 27 points (5-22-27) in 52 outings with Grand Rapids to go along with two points (2-0-2) in nine games with the Red Wings. The 20-year-old made his NHL debut on March 18, 2023 against Colorado and later bagged his first NHL goal on March 23, 2023 versus St. Louis. Edvinsson will look to make his NHL season debut tonight at New Jersey.
