Red Wings need to send rookie forward to Grand Rapids immediately

Michael Brandsegg-Nygard looks like a sledgehammer on the ice, with 28 hits in nine games. But unfortunately, he needs to be more than a physical presence, and that hasn't happened yet. Brandsegg-Nygard hasn't looked awful, but more seasoning in Grand Rapids would be more plausible.

Ansar Khan of MLive recently answered a fan question on X and projected Brandsegg-Nygard to be sent down to Grand Rapids. If the Red Wings are listening, they need to make sure Khan's projection is accurate, especially if it means calling up a high-potential prospect like Carter Mazur.

No indication on Sunday.
