UPDATE: The #RedWings have recalled defenseman William Lagesson from the AHL’s Grand Rapids Griffins.

  1. Nothing to get excited about. This guy isn’t a young prospect getting his first shot. He’s a journeyman.

  2. I don’t know this man but he can’t be any worse than who we have right now

  3. Of course our recent form will have a lot of people writing this off, and obviously so will the fact that Lagesson isn’t at all a needle mover. however, it’s an interesting move to call up somebody from the AHL for the last game of a 4-gm road trip, and have them travel all the way to SJS, presumably, for this game. I’m guessing somebody might be sick or we’re worried about Ed’s knee. But even still, we went on the road trip with an extra defenseman.

    Otherwise, if this is purely a move because of performance, I’m very curious to see who is riding pine tonight.

  4. Yzerman has done a terrible job of building this defense. Sadly the one guy who was actually good at his job(Maata) has been traded.

  5. I know this is likely cus Ed is injured and the team is struggling. But I keep refreshing Twitter/X hoping there’s a trade involving one of our sub par D

  6. I’m mainly a Leaf fella – I was really bummed when the leafs lost Lagesson on waivers last year. We was solid player who just didn’t seem to fit Keefe’s plans for whatever reason.

  7. Time to commit to the tank. Likely means Ed is out long term.

    Thank god Mo didn’t hold out because if he did Yzerman wouldn’t have any argument to not give him max money and term for what he brings to this team
