SHELDON DRIES NEWS

Waived by Detroit Dries was waived by the Red Wings on Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Dries signed a two-way deal with the Red Wings in early July and was unable to earn an Opening Night roster spot for the 2024-25 season. Assuming he clears waivers, he'll likely spend most of this season in the minors.

Pens two-year pact Dries signed a two-year, two-way contract with Detroit on Monday.

Impact Dries racked up 29 goals and 52 points in 55 regular-season contests for AHL Abbotsford in 2023-24. He has 16 goals and 26 points in 122 NHL career appearances. Dries will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors.

Lands on waivers Dries was placed on waivers Sunday for the purpose of assignment to AHL Abbotsford.

Impact Dries tallied career highs in goals (11) and points (17) in 63 games last year, but it appears he'll open the 2023-24 season with AHL Abottsford if he clears waivers. Dries figures to be one of the first men up should Vancouver need additional forward depth this year.

Impact Dries ended a six-game point drought with his second-period tally. The 28-year-old continues to enjoy his best season at the NHL level with seven goals, four helpers, 53 shots on net, 40 hits, 15 PIM and a minus-8 rating through 35 appearances. He's still not productive enough across the board to be of much help to fantasy managers.
