The Detroit Red Wings have announced that center Nate Danielson has been recalled from the team’s AHL affiliate, the Grand Rapids Griffins.

The ninth overall pick at the 2023 NHL Draft, Danielson is now in line to make his NHL debut at the earliest in today’s matinee contest against the Chicago Blackhawks or in Thursday’s game against the Anaheim Ducks.

The 21-year-old center began this season injured before he was reassigned to the AHL on Oct. 24. It took just four games in the AHL (where he scored five points) for Danielson to earn a recall to the team’s NHL roster.

The former Brandon Wheat Kings captain is in his second season playing professional hockey. He scored 12 goals and 39 points in 72 games for Grand Rapids last season, and added a goal in three playoff contests.
