The Red Wings recalled goaltender Victor Brattstrom from the American Hockey League’s Grand Rapids Griffins under emergency conditions.

Brattstrom is expected to back up starting goalie Alex Nedeljkovic for Wednesday's game against the Rangers at Little Caesars Anena.

Thomas Greiss practiced Tuesday but isn't yet available for game action, and Calvin Pickard is recovering after being injured in Pittsburgh.

Brattstrom, 25, began his first season in North America in 2021-22 and has appeared in 23 games between the Griffins and ECHL's Toledo Walleye.

In 20 games with Grand Rapids, he has a 6-10-4 record, 3.
