HockeySverige.se’s Konrad Gronlund is reporting that the Red Wings have recalled William Wallinder from Grand Rapids:
William Wallinder scored his first AHL goal for the season five days ago.
Now he’s been called up from Grand Rapids and is ready to debut for the Detroit Red Wings. The announcement comes after Swedish Simon Edvinsson injured himself and thus is out of the lineup. This according to several sources, including Around The Horn.
William Lagesson and Swedish affiliation Marco Kasper have also been called up in the NHL. But for both, it’s a summons to the NHL in the crowd.
Wallinder is listed on the Red Wings’ roster page currently:
The Red Wings would have to put a player on IR to find a spot for Wallinder.
