Evgeny Svechnikov has had a few good games and impactful moments in his brief time with the Detroit Red Wings this season, but not enough to be firmly established on the roster.
The Red Wings waived the 24-year-old forward for the second time this season on Friday. This gives them the flexibility of assigning Svechnikov to the taxi squad or the AHL Grand Rapids Griffins if they choose to do so.
Svechnikov, the club’s top pick in 2015 (19th overall), cleared waivers before the season. After he played 10 NHL games, the Red Wings needed to waive him again before assigning him to the taxi squad or Grand Rapids.
Svechnikov has until noon Saturday to clear.
He has three goals and two assists in 10 games, averaging 10:46 in ice time.
