The Detroit Red Wings assigned center Chase Pearson to the AHL&#8217;s Grand Rapids Griffins.

Pearson, 24, made his NHL debut last Thursday against the New York Islanders laying three hits and a plus-one rating in his 7:40 TOI.
Drafted by the Red Wings in the fifth round of the 2015 draft, Pearson is in his fourth pro season in the organization. He&#8217;s spent his time with the Griffins, however, where in 144 games he&#8217;s scored 25 goals and 63 points.
Following his draft year, he spent another season with the Youngstown Phantoms before joining the NCAA&#8217;s University of Maine. There, he appeared in 107 games over three seasons scoring 37 goals and 78 points. In his final two years, he served as the captain.
