Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Two points before late exit

Rasmussen (undisclosed) scored a goal and added an assist Saturday versus the Golden Knights before departing late in the third period with an injury, Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site reports.

There was no update on Rasmussen's status after the game. He snapped a four-game point drought with his two-point game, which gives him 13 goals and 15 assists through 64 outings overall. The Red Wings' next game is Tuesday in Buffalo, and an update on his status should be available before that contest. If he can't play, the Red Wings could dress seven defensemen or call up a forward from AHL Grand Rapids.
