Lashoff will hang up his skates and call it a career, the Griffins announced Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Lashoff spent the bulk of his professional career playing in the minors, logging 628 games for AHL Grand Rapids in which he notched 32 goals and 100 assists, plus another 20 points in 75 playoff contests. The Albany, New York native did see some action in the NHL with the Red Wings for whom he made 136 appearances and garnered 15 points. Undrafted coming out of the OHL, Lashoff put together a quality 14-year professional career.

Red Wings released Lashoff from PTO on Friday, according to the Red Wings' website.

EDGE Analysis

Lashoff has played in Grand Rapids of the AHL the last two seasons and scould return there for the 2022-23 campaign. He is a depth defenseman for the organization.

Lashoff was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Lashoff will head to the minors for now, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him back with the Red Wings prior to Tuesday's matchup with the Islanders. The 31-year-old blueliner hasn't appeared in an NHL contest since 2019-20.

Lashoff was elevated from the minors Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Lashoff hasn't appeared in an NHL game since 2019-20, when he appeared in nine contests for the Wings in which he generated one assist, six shots and six PIM. Even with Gustav Lindstrom (lower body) going on injured reserve, Lashoff is unlikely to see much in the way of minutes even if he does come down from the press box for a game or two.

Lashoff was waived by the Red Wings on Thursday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lashoff has 136 games of NHL experience but didn't see any time with the big club last season. He'll add veteran depth in the organization but likely won't see much time with Detroit barring multiple injuries.

Lashoff secured a one-year, two-way contract from Detroit on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Lashoff failed to break into a game for the Red Wings last season, instead spending the entire campaign in the minors with AHL Grand Rapids. For the Griffins, the blueliner notched one goal and two helpers in 13 contests. Look for the 31-year-old veteran to continue plying his trade primarily in the minors this year, as well.

The Lightning acquired Lashoff from Columbus as part of a three-team deal with Detroit on Saturday, Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Contrary to an earlier report, Lashoff was actually traded twice Saturday, originally from Detroit to Columbus, and then to the Lightning. The 6-foot-3 defenseman will stick around with AHL Grand Rapids despite joining Tampa Bay's organization.

Detroit traded Lashoff to Columbus in exchange for a 2021 fourth-round pick as part of a three-team deal involving the Lightning on Saturday, Frank Seravalli of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Detroit actually acquired the pick from Tampa Bay as the third team involved in a trade that sent David Savard to the Lightning. Lashoff has 136 games of NHL experience since the start of the 2012-13 season but hasn't seen any NHL action in 2021. The 30-year-old defenseman has three points in 13 AHL games and will likely report to AHL Cleveland.

Lashoff was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Lashoff stayed with the Wings for just one day before the club added Cody Goloubef off waivers to shore up the team's defensive group. Even if he makes his way back to the big club, Lashoff doesn't possess much fantasy appeal.

The Red Wings recalled Lashoff from AHL Grand Rapids under emergency conditions Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The 29-year-old will fill the roster spot vacated by Filip Hronek (head), who was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Lashoff has seen action with the big club already this season, skating in nine games and earning an assist. It's likely that Lashoff will provide depth to the defensive corps until Hronek is fully cleared to return.
