Dominik Shine - NHL News & Rumors

Big role in AHL win Shine scored three goals and added an assist in AHL Grand Rapids' 10-1 win over Texas on Tuesday.

Impact Shine broke out of a slump in a big way -- he had posted just two helpers over his last four games. The winger has been effective this year with nine goals and 15 points over 12 appearances. The 32-year-old probably won't get much of a chance with the Red Wings despite his solid play for the Griffins so far.

Leads Griffins to win Shine scored twice on five shots and added an assist in AHL Grand Rapids' 4-2 win over Rockford on Saturday.

Impact Shine is up to five goals and three helpers through six contests in the AHL this year. He earned his NHL debut in 2024-25 on the strength of a 14-goal, 46-point effort over 61 regular-season games with the Griffins. The 32-year-old could get a call-up in a pinch, but the Red Wings have trended younger this year, so Shine's strong play so far may just simply come as an AHL veteran helping to guide the organization's prospects through the pipeline.

Pair of points Friday Shine scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in AHL Grand Rapids' 5-2 win over Manitoba on Friday.

Impact Shine saw some time with the Red Wings last year, earning one assist, 16 hits and 15 PIM in nine outings. He's picked up three points across three AHL games so far. It'll likely take multiple injuries in Detroit or a truly impressive run of scoring for the 32-year-old winger to get another call-up.

Waived by Wings Shine was designated for waivers by Detroit on Wednesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Impact Shine's demotion could be a positive sign for Emmitt Finnie, who has been featured in a top-six role with Dylan Larkin periodically. For his part, the 32-year-old SHine finally made his NHL debut last season, logging nine games with the Red Wings in which he garnered one assist, 16 hits and five shots while averaging 8:39 of ice time. Shine should be on the list of potential call-ups this year but is unlikely to feature prominently for the club at the NHL level.

APRIL 5 • NHL.COM

Sent down by Detroit Shine was assigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Friday.

Impact Shine was called up by Detroit in early March, and he made five appearances during his time with the NHL club. He was held without a point and recorded eight hits, a blocked shot and 15 PIM while averaging 8:34 of ice time. However, the 31-year-old appeared in just one of the team's last eight games and should have more consistent opportunities to contribute in the AHL.

He's made four appearances for the Red Wings this year, logging an assist, eight hits and two blocked shots while averaging 8:44 of ice time.

Collects first NHL point Shine registered an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Flames.

Impact Shine made his NHL debut Monday, and he has his first career point less than a week later. The 31-year-old's story is one of persistence -- he spent parts of nine seasons with AHL Grand Rapids before putting pen to paper on an NHL-level contract. Shine has added two shots on net, five hits and two blocked shots in a fourth-line role, though he may be at risk of losing his roster spot once Patrick Kane (upper body) is ready to return.

Assigned to AHL Grand Rapids Shine was released from his professional tryout and subsequently assigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Saturday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

Impact Shine lasted quite a while in training camp, but this was still a predictable transaction given that he's been in the minors with the Griffins since the 2016-17 campaign and has yet to skate on NHL ice during the regular season. The Detroit native posted 14 goals, 11 assists and 54 PIM through 69 games for Grand Rapids last season.
