It was inevitable but the news that the Detroit Red Wings sent Michael Rasmussen back to Grand Rapids comes with the slight hope that either Dylan Larkin or Tyler Bertuzzi are nearing a return.
UPDATE: The #RedWings today assigned center Michael Rasmussen to the Grand Rapids Griffins. Additionally, the Red Wings reassigned defenseman Gustav Lindstrom to the Griffins from the team’s taxi squad.
