Red Wings' Simon Edvinsson to benefit from playoff games with Griffins
The Detroit Red Wings were pleased by how young defenseman Simon Edvinsson handled playing in pressure-packed games during a playoff run that fell just short. The 6-6 former No. 6 pick will get an opportunity to play more important games with the Grand Rapids Griffins in the AHL playoffs after being reassigned on Wednesday, along with veteran forward Zach Aston-Reese. Edvinsson, 21, appeared in 14 games after being recalled on March 19. “His play has been a huge bright spot in this stretch,” coach Derek Lalonde said on Monday.
