Sundqvist scored Detroit's lone goal in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Sundqvist has made a positive first impression with his new team, adding two goals and an assist through three games with the Wings. His fantasy value with the Blues was meager due to limited ice time (13:21), but the Original Six club is using him in a top-six capacity with power-play responsivities to boot. Keep an eye on him while he's running this hot.

Sundqvist scored an empty-net goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Sundqvist did all his damage without a goalie in the opposing net -- also assisting on Tyler Bertuzzi's empty-netter -- but it wound up being a memorable debut in Detroit nonetheless. Acquired from the Blues via trade Monday, Sundqvist skated 15:42 in his first game with the Red Wings, which was third-most among the team's forwards.

Sundqvist was traded to the Red Wings from the Blues on Monday along with Jake Walman and a 2023 second-round pick in exchange for Nick Leddy and Luke Witkowski.
EDGE Analysis
Sundqvist was the only forward involved in the deal for either side. He played predominantly on the third line in St. Louis, and Sundqvist's likely to play a similar role in Detroit, except on a far worse team. Keep an eye on Sundqvist's deployment with his new team, though -- if Detroit's lack of center depth allows the Swede to snag the second-line spot between Tyler Bertuzzi and Jakub Vrana, he could be in for a productive stretch run. Otherwise, his fantasy value will likely diminish relative to his time in St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis
Sundqvist missed Sunday's game versus the Blackhawks due to a lower-body issue, but whatever held him out of that contest evidently wasn't overly serious. Look for him to draw into a bottom-six role against the Rangers.
