Finds twine Thursday Wallinder scored a goal and added two hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

Impact Wallinder has filled a part-time role as the Red Wings continue to balance his usage as well as Axel Sandin-Pellikka's early in the campaign. Through five outings, Wallinder has done fairly well, earning two goals, one assist, five shots on net, five hits, four blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating. Until his playing time steadies, the 24-year-old defenseman won't be a strong fantasy option.

Grabs first NHL goal Friday Wallinder potted a goal, placed three shots on net and had two blocked shots in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Kraken.

Impact Just days after posting an assist in his NHL debut, Wallinder tallied the first goal of his career four minutes into Friday's second period. The 24-year-old blueliner is making the most of his opportunity in Detroit with Simon Edvinsson (contract dispute) sidelined. Wallinder showed steady improvement with AHL Grand Rapids over the past three seasons, compiling two goals and 20 points in 66 regular-season games with the Griffins in 2025-26. The six-foot-four Wallinder should continue to have a role for the Red Wings at least over the next handful of games, and if he can secure his spot on the team long-term, he'll have decent upside in dynasty-based fantasy leagues.

Impact Wallinder was recalled ahead of Monday's game against St. Louis, but he was merely an insurance policy as Ben Chiarot didn't play due to an upper-body injury.

Recalled by Detroit Wallinder was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids on Monday.

Impact Wallinder was drafted by the Red Wings with the second round in 2020, but he hasn't yet made his NHL debut. However, he'll join the Red Wings after Simon Edvinsson (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday. Wallinder will presumably serve as an extra defenseman and seems unlikely to have much of a role if he sees any game action.
