The Red Wings announced some roster cuts on Wednesday ahead of Thursday’s game in Toronto. With the latest move, Detroit’s roster sits at 40. Here’s who is going and who is staying (for now)…
Players Assigned or Release on Oct. 1
Eduards Tralmaks, LW – Grand Rapids Griffins
Carter Gylander, G – Toledo Walleye
Carter Bear, LW – WHL
Jacob Truscott – Grand Rapids Griffins
Alexandre Doucet, LW – Grand Rapids Griffins
Carson Bantle, LW – Grand Rapids Griffins
Jakub Rychlovsky, LW – Grand Rapids Griffins
Gabriel Seger, C – Grand Rapids Griffins
Alex Kannok Leipert, D – Grand Rapids Griffins
2025 first-round pick Carter Bear headlines the latest cuts. Not surprising the Red Wings would make this move. He missed a lot of hockey and the best developmental choice for him right now is the junior level. He can get his legs back, dominate the WHL, then get on with his pro career.
Players Still on the Roster
More cuts are coming, and quick. The season opens October 9. That’s like, real soon, man. Next week, even.
