NATE DANIELSON NEWS

Collects first career NHL points Danielson scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

Impact The 21-year-old produced his first career points in his fifth NHL game, tipping home a shot by Axel Sandin-Pellikka early in the second period before feeding Emmitt Finnie for what proved to be the game-winner later in the frame. Danielson was the ninth overall pick in the 2023 Draft, and he could be ready to carve out a consistent role in the middle six for Detroit.

Assigned to AHL Danielson (undisclosed) was activated from the injured non-roster list and assigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Friday.

Impact Danielson started the year injured but appears to be healthy enough to play now. The 21-year-old will likely spend most of 2025-26 with the Griffins, but he could be a call-up candidate if he plays well.

Out indefinitely Danielson sustained an undisclosed injury versus the Sabres on Saturday and has no timetable to return, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Danielson's lack of a recovery timeline likely means he will begin the upcoming campaign on season-opening injured reserve. Once eventually given the all-clear, look for the 21-year-old to report to AHL Grand Rapids, where he figures to play the bulk of the upcoming 2025-26 campaign.

Slumping at AHL level Danielson has not had a point in his last eight AHL contests.

Impact Danielson was selected ninth overall in 2023 and is spending his first professional season with AHL Grand Rapids where he has four goals and 18 assists in 45 appearances. Danielson is expected to be a middle-two center at the NHL level as he has a strong two-way game. He could get a taste of NHL action later in the season, once he snaps out of his current slump.

Scores game winner Tuesday Danielson potted the game-winning goal in Tuesday's 2-1 exhibition win versus the Penguins.

Impact Danielson is a highly-touted prospect -- the 20-year-old was the No. 9 overall pick by the Red Wings in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft. The right-shot center will continue his upwards trajectory with AHL Grand Rapids in 2024-25, but he could make his debut with the big club at some point during the campaign.

Scheduled for WHL return Danielson will return to his junior team with WHL Brandon this weekend, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

Impact Taken ninth overall by the Red Wings in this year's draft, Danielson has been turning heads in preseason, with the prospect managing two goals and two assists through five games. While it's no surprise that Danielson will require additional seasoning in the junior ranks, his future looks very bright given the lofty draft profile and seeing him make an immediate impact at the professional level. Last year, Danielson recorded 33 goals and 45 assists through 68 games for Brandon.

Scores in NHL preseason debut Danielson potted a goal in his NHL preseason debut Tuesday, leading to a 3-2 win over the Penguins.

Impact Danielson will be an exciting player to watch in training camp, as the Wings deemed him worthy of the ninth overall pick in this year's draft. Of course, Detroit has had some hits and misses when it comes to their top picks at forward in recent years. Filip Zadina, who is now with the Sharks, didn't pan out after the team from Motown took him sixth overall in the 2018 draft, but Lucas Raymond, their No. 4 overall pick from 2020, figures to be a mainstay on the top line for the foreseeable future. Lauded for his two-way skills, Danielson inked a three-year, entry-level contract in July. The strong power pivot tore his way through the WHL last season, adding 33 goals and 45 assists in 68 games for the Wheat Kings.
