## Resource

Michael Brandsegg-Nygard is heating up his case for an NHL roster spot with Detroit, earning high praise from his former coach who called him the best player on Grand Rapids during their playoff run—highlighting his physicality and scoring. With the Red Wings ranked 22nd in offense last season and desperate for goal-scoring punch, Brandsegg-Nygard’s 20 goals and 44 points in 60 AHL games make him a prime candidate for a top-six or third-line role. His shot is elite, and while he struggled early in his Detroit stint, his development in Grand Rapids gave him confidence and NHL-ready adaptability. Interim GM Shawn Horcoff, who oversaw the Griffins last year, sees his potential as a game-changer. Brandsegg-Nygard was spotted training with key forwards Carter Mazur and Nate Danielson—signaling he’s ready to compete for a spot in the lineup this season.
