Red Wings sign Viktor Arvidsson to two-year contract | Detroit Red Wings Forward has recorded 443 points in 682 games with Nashville, Los Angeles, Edmonton and Boston since 2014-15

Inks two-year deal Arvidsson (ribs) agreed to terms on a two-year, $10 million contract with Detroit on Wednesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Arvidsson certainly cashed in on his 2025-26 campaign in which he generated 25 goals and 29 assists in 69 regular-season games for the Bruins. With his new club, the 33-year-old Swede could push for a top-six role, as well as see time on the power play. As such, Arvidsson should be capable of replicating his numbers from last year and offering solid top-half fantasy value.

Had fractured rib, punctured lung Arvidsson suffered a fractured rib and a punctured lung during the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Amalie Benjamin of NHL.com reports Sunday.

Impact Arvidsson sat out the final two games of Boston's first-round series loss to Buffalo. However, he would've been a possibility for Game 7 had the Bruins avoided elimination at the hands of the Sabres on Friday. Buffalo emerged victorious in Game 6, so Arvidsson will have the summer to recover, and he should be ready for training camp in the fall.

Viktor Arvidsson ruled out of Bruins' Game 5 vs. Buffalo due to injury Boston Bruins forward Viktor Arvidsson won't play in Tuesday's Game 5 vs. Buffalo due to an upper-body injury.

APRIL 28 • BOSTON.COM

Ruled out for Game 5 Arvidsson (upper body) will miss Tuesday's Game 5 against the Sabres, per Amalie Benjamin of NHL.com.

Impact Arvidsson did not travel with the Bruins to Buffalo after sustaining the upper-body injury early in Game 4. The 33-year-old winger has been a large part of the Bruins' offense during the first-round matchup with two goals and 11 shots on net across four games. If Boston can force Game 6, Arvidsson will have a chance to return to the team's lineup in another win-or-go-home situation. In his absence, Michael Eyssimont, James Hagens or Alex Steeves will likely occupy Arvidsson's spot in the lineup.

Absent from practice Arvidsson (upper body) is questionable for Game 5 against Buffalo on Tuesday, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Arvidsson didn't participate in Monday's practice after being injured in Sunday's 6-1 loss to the Sabres in Game 4. There was no update on his availability following Monday's session. He has two goals, 11 shots on net, three blocked shots and one hit in four outings this postseason. Michael Eyssimont could replace Arvidsson in Tuesday's lineup, but James Hagens and Alex Steeves are also available as replacement options.

Ruled out for rest of Game 4 Arvidsson (upper body) left Sunday's Game 4 against the Sabres and was officially ruled out for the rest of the contest, the Bruins announced.

Impact Arvidsson missed part of the first period after taking a hard hit in the corner, didn't come out with the rest of the team for the second, and now has officially been ruled out for the rest of the game. The 33-year-old scored twice in the team's Game 2 victory but has a minus-3 rating in the series so far. Game 5 is Tuesday, so it remains to be seen whether or not he can return then.
