Red Wings' Marco Kasper: Adds assist in loss
Rotowire
Kasper notched an assist, three shots on goal and four hits in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Devils.

Kasper is up to five points, 31 shots on net, 28 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 19 appearances, but he could grow into better production over the course of 2024-25.
