Lands on taxi squad Svechnikov cleared waivers Saturday and was assigned to the taxi squad.

Impact The Red Wings risked losing their 2015 first-round pick (19th overall) on waivers. Svechnikov has registered three goals, two assists and nine shots on net through 10 NHL games this season. He'll likely stick with the big club for the rest of the road trip, but the 24-year-old may end up back with AHL Grand Rapids soon.

Hits waivers Svechnikov was waived by Detroit on Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Svechnikov is only making $874,125 at the NHL level and he's picked up five points through 10 top-level appearances this year, so there may be a few teams interested in snatching him off waivers.

Dropped to taxi squad Svechnikov was returned to Detroit's taxi squad Friday.

Impact Svechnikov will almost certainly be back on the active roster ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Lightning.

Returns to active roster Svechnikov was promoted to the Red Wings' active roster Thursday.

Impact Svechnikov is expected to skate on Detroit's third line and second power-play unit Thursday against the Panthers. He's notched five points in nine NHL appearances this season.

Shuffles to taxi squad Svechnikov was reassigned to the Red Wings' taxi squad Wednesday.

Impact Svechnikov has appeared in three straight games for Detroit, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him return to the active roster prior to Thursday's matchup with the Panthers. He's tallied five points in nine games this campaign.

Moves to active roster Svechnikov was promoted to the active roster Tuesday.

Impact The 24-year-old winger scored his third goal of the season in Sunday's win over the Blue Jackets. He's also added two assists through eight games despite averaging just 10:48 of ice time. Svechnikov should slot into the bottom-six in Tuesday's game versus the Lightning, though he'll likely garner some power-play time as well.

Shifts to taxi squad Svechnikov was designated for the taxi squad Monday.

Impact This is likely just a paper move. Svechnikov scored his third goal of the season in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets, so he's expected to stay in the lineup for Tuesday's matchup against the Panthers.
