From NHL Puck Report on Twitter: The Detroit Red Wings’ qualifying offers were posted this evening, and, for some reason, the Wings didn’t qualify Carter Mazur. I can’t imagine that they’re going to let him walk for nothing, but we shall see:
#LGRW qualified RFAs Simon Edvinsson and Carter Gylander.

Here’s a bit from the Hockey News’s Michael Whitaker:
NHL clubs had until 5 p.m. ET on Monday to submit qualifying offers to their pending restricted free agents, and the Detroit Red Wings have made their decisions.
Defenseman Simon Edvinsson and 2019 seventh-round (191st overall) pick Carter Gylander were the only players to receive qualifying offers from the Red Wings. At the same time, 2021 third-round (70th overall) pick Carter Mazur was among the many players who were not offered one.
By extending qualifying offers, the Red Wings preserve their matching rights if either player signs an offer sheet with another club once free agency begins at 12:00 p.m. ET on July 1. Both players also have the option of accepting their qualifying offer or continuing negotiations on a new contract with Detroit.
