DETROIT – The Detroit Red Wings have recalled forward Eric Tangradi and defenseman Nick Jensen from Grand Rapids of the AHL while assigning forward Joakim Andersson to the Griffins.
Jensen was recalled in the event Brendan Smith is unable to play Monday in New York against the Islanders. Smith missed the final 3:27 of Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Anaheim Ducks after being shaken up when Rickard Rickell was penalized for boarding.
Tangradi will take Andersson's place on the Red Wings roster. Andersson cleared waivers Sunday.
More details to come.
