GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Detroit Red Wings on Thursday recalled center Chase Pearson from the Grand Rapids Griffins.
Pearson will join the Red Wings’ active roster for the first time in his three-year career. During the 2020-21 season, Pearson held a roster spot on Detroit’s taxi squad for two days but did not see any game time. The Alpharetta, Ga., native was selected with the 140th overall pick by Detroit in the fifth round of the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. Pearson will look to make his NHL debut and become the 191st Griffin to play for the Red Wings.
