Per DetroitHockey.net’s Clark Rasmussen:
The Detroit Red Wings didn’t announce jersey numbers for their summer acquisitions in a social media post this year. Instead they simply updated the roster on their website with the changes on Thursday morning.
Viktor Arvidsson has been assigned the #33 he has worn for most of his career, with the number now available do to the trade of Sebastian Cossa to Utah.
Backup netminder Daniil Tarasov takes #80 – as I had guessed he might – with his usual #40 at least informally out of circulation.
Summer trade acquisition Keegan Kolesar takes the #55 that he wore with the Vegas Golden Knights, becoming the first Red Wing to wear it since Niklas Kronwall.
