Veleno scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Veleno's goal came in garbage time with 1:26 left in a lopsided game. The 21-year-old has been solid in limited action for the Red Wings this year, logging three points, 12 shots on net, 15 hits and an even plus-minus rating. The Quebec native should have every chance to compete for a middle-six job while Mitchell Stephens (lower body) is out.
