It appears that Steve Yzerman and the Detroit Red Wings are preparing to bring in a wealthy amount of prospects for this upcoming season as they’ve placed two longtime veterans on waivers Sunday.
Axel Sandin-Pellikka made quite the strong showing during NHL preseason, and now it’s believed that he’s in the running to make the opening night roster.
The Red Wings have decided to send two players down to the AHL’s Grand Rapids Griffins, but in order to do so, they must pass waivers first.
Justin Holl and Erik Gustafsson were both placed on waivers, alongside 41 other familiar faces in the NHL.
