Rasmussen notched an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen set up Carter Rowney for the go-ahead goal at 4:22 of the second period, and the Red Wings didn't look back. The 22-year-old Rasmussen has been a solid depth forward with three helpers, 13 shots and nine blocked shots through six contests. He'll continue to work in a middle-six capacity, and a small uptick in offense combined with his solid defensive work so far could earn him interest in deeper fantasy formats.

Rasmussen (undisclosed) notched an assist and three blocked shots in Thursday's 7-6 overtime loss to the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen dealt with an injury at the end of the preseason, but he was fine to play in a third-line role Thursday. He helped out on Vladislav Namestnikov's third-period tally, but it wasn't enough for the Red Wings to win their season opener. Rasmussen is slated to play in a middle-six role to begin this season, and he had 12 points in 40 outings in 2020-21.

Rasmussen (undisclosed) is projected to center the third line Thursday versus the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen missed the last two games of the Red Wings' preseason slate, but he appears ready to go for the season opener. The 22-year-old recorded 12 points in 40 games last season, and he shouldn't be expected to see much more than middle-six usage this year. He could also factor in on the second power-play unit after averaging 2:16 of ice time per game in that situation last season.

Rasmussen (undisclosed) is considered day-to-day, Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen won't play in Wednesday's preseason game versus Columbus or Thursday's exhibition against the Penguins, but his day-to-day tag suggests he probably isn't in danger of missing Detroit's regular-season opener against Tampa Bay on Oct. 14. Rasmussen should continue to skate in a middle-six role while seeing regular power-play usage in 2021-22, but he only produced three goals and 12 points through 40 games in that role last season, so expectations for the 22-year-old forward should be tempered.

Rasmussen signed a three-year, $4.38 million contract extension with the Red Wings on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen has drawn into 102 games with Detroit over the past three campaigns, picking up 11 goals, 30 points and 156 hits over that span. The ninth overall pick from the 2017 draft has plenty of upside, but it may be a few more seasons until his full offensive potential is realized at the NHL level.

Rasmussen scored an empty-net goal and added three hits in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen helped secure the Red Wings' win with his third-period tally. The 21-year-old reached the 10-point mark with his tally. He's added 39 shots on net, 51 hits and 22 PIM in 29 appearances this year. The first-round pick from 2017 should continue to log minutes in a middle-six role to get adjusted to the NHL level.

Rasmussen picked up two assists, one on the power play, in Monday's 3-1 win over the Hurricanes.

EDGE Analysis

The 21-year-old hadn't found the scoresheet in his prior three games, but Rasmussen helped set up Detroit's first two goals early in the third period as the team broke open a scoreless tie. Rasmussen has two goals and five points in his last nine games, and the ninth overall pick in the 2017 draft figures to see an increased role down the stretch for the rebuilding Wings.

Rasmussen was promoted to the active roster Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen has posted two goals and an assist across the last six games while averaging 15:51 of ice time. The 2017 ninth overall pick is expected to center the second line in Thursday's game versus the Predators.

Rasmussen was reassigned to Detroit's taxi squad Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen continues to shift to the taxi squad on off-days as a cost-saving measure. He'll return to the active roster for Thursday's game versus Nashville.

Rasmussen was promoted to Detroit's active roster Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Rasmussen has continued to move to the Red Wings' taxi squad on off days, but he'll likely remain a regular in Detroit's lineup down the stretch. He's picked up seven points in 24 games this campaign.
