Red Wings' Erik Gustafsson: Hits waivers for AHL assignment

Gustafsson was placed on waivers by the Red Wings on Sunday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Gustafsson was one of a handful of normal NHL regulars who hit the waiver wire Sunday. The 33-year-old ended the 2024-25 campaign injured, but he still logged 60 games with Detroit last year, recording two goals and 18 points. If Gustafsson suits up in an AHL game, it will be for the first time since the 2017-18 season.
