Red Wings' Marco Kasper: Earns first career point

Kasper logged an assist, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Predators.

In his second career NHL outing, Kasper earned his first point by assisting on a Vladimir Tarasenko tally in the first period. The 20-year-old Kasper is one of the Red Wings' top prospects, but it's unclear how much time the Austrian forward will get to make an impact in the NHL after he was called up to replace Tyler Motte (upper body) on Friday. Kasper will likely occupy a bottom-six role initially unless his play warrants a promotion to a scoring line.
