Edvinsson will represent the Griffins for the 2024 AHL All-Star Classic in San Jose on Feb 4-5, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Edvinsson is a big-time prospect for the Wings having been drafted by the Original Six club with the sixth overall pick in 2021. The 6-foot-6, 209-pound blueliner made his NHL debut last season, supplying two goals and an assist over 11 contests, including a pair of top-level tilts this campaign. For now, Edvinsson seems better off in the minor league where he can log heavy minutes and continue to sharpen his skills in the professional ranks, albeit a lower pressure setting. He's fashioned 20 points (six goals, 14 assists) through 30 games with the Griffins in 2023-24.

Edvinsson scored a goal in Wednesday's 2-1 preseason win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Edvinsson was able to get the puck past former Red Wings goalie Alex Nedeljkovic for the game-winning tally. Drafted sixth overall in 2021, Edvinsson could be a future defense partner for 2022 Calder Trophy winner Moritz Seider. Despite playing well in Wednesday's contest, Edvinsson doesn't have a spot secured on the Detroit roster yet.

Edvinsson was demoted to AHL Grand Rapids on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Edvinsson has played in nine NHL games this season, in which he tallied two goals on five shots, 11 hits and 12 PIM, and now figures to close out the year in the minors to avoid burning a year of his entry-level contract. With the Griffins, the 20-year-old Swede managed 27 points in 51 games. Edvinsson should be in contention for a spot on the 23-man roster ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.

EDGE Analysis
