Red Wings recall Kyle Criscuolo from Grand Rapids

The Detroit Red Wings have recalled forward @Kyle Criscuolo from the Grand Rapids Griffins of the American Hockey League, the club announced on Saturday afternoon.

Criscuolo, 29, has 12 goals and 32 points in 49 games with the Griffins this season. He’s also appeared in two NHL games with the Red Wings, recording an assist.

A 5’9″, 175-pound center who shoots right, Criscuolo will likely draw into the Red Wings’ lineup for their game in Ottawa on Sunday.

With @Givani Smith injured and @Tyler Bertuzzi ineligible to play in Canada due to his unvaccinated status, Criscuolo will likely be the Red Wings’ 12th forward against the Senators.

The Red Wings fell to the Senators by a 5–2 score in Detroit on Friday. @Lucas Raymond scored both goals for Detroit, which fell to 26–33–9 with the loss.
