Detroit Red Wings re-assign Tomas Tatar to AHL Grand Rapids. Tatar had four goals and seven points in 18 games with the Wings this season but hadn't registered a point since March 3. Detroit called up AHL points leader Gustav Nyquist to replace Tatar on the roster.

The Red Wings are pleased with the development of Tomas Tatar this season. Tatar has played in 16 games since being recalled from Grand Rapids of the AHL and has impressed the club by scoring seven points and directing 29 shots on goal in 16 contests. It's customary for the Red Wings to keep their young players in the minor leagues until they are truly ready for the NHL and this situation is no different. Given his modest statistics so far, now is a perfect to target Tatar in keeper leagues.

Tomas Tatar has impressed the Detroit Red Wings since his recall four weeks ago. Tatar has played in 14 games and now has four goals and seven points after scoring the Red Wings lone goal Sunday in a 2-1 shootout loss to Chicago. Tatar has always been highly regarded since being drafted 60th overall in 2009 but Detroit likes to give their young players plenty of time in the minors before they take on a role in the NHL and Tatar at the age of 22 is no exception. It looks as if he is now ready so feel free to grab him in deeper pools.

Tomas Tatar could find himself as a top-six forward in the near future. Coach Mike Babcock suggested it could be a possibility as the Red Wings are struggling of late. Tatar has two goals and four points in seven games with both goals and an assist coming in his last three games. Keep him in mind in deeper pools if you are looking for a scoring forward.

Tomas Tatar had a goal and an assist on Friday. Tatar now has two goals and four points in six games. That's a pretty good start, but he's only averaging 12:12 minutes per contest, including 11:53 on Friday. With that in mind, we can't recommend grabbing him at this time.

Tomas Tatar will make his season debut on Tuesday. Tatar was called up on Monday. He skated alongside Pavel Datsyuk and Valtteri Filppula, but Red Wings coach Mike Babcock implied that he was looking for Tatar to help with the team's bottom-six. Keep an eye on Tatar as he could have some fantasy value if he gets top-six minutes.

Tomas Tatar has been called up by the Detroit Red Wings. Tatar has 19 goals and 39 points in 44 AHL games. He might make his NHL season debut on Tuesday.

Red Wings prospect Tomas Tatar is not expected to break camp with the Red Wings when the season starts this week. Tatar will have to continue biding his time in the AHL until an injury or some other scenario leads to his call-up. He's still someone to target in keeper leagues.

Tomas Tatar scored twice to lead Grand Rapids to a 3-1 win over Rockford Monday. Tatar scored both goals in the third period to break a 1-1 tie. This is Tatar's fourth season in the AHL but is still only 22 years old. He now has 13 goals and 26 points this season and should get every opportunity to crack the Detroit lineup once the lockout ends. Gustav Nyquist assisted on both goals while Landon Ferraro opened the scoring for the Griffins while Dylan Olsen scored the lone goal for the IceHogs.

The Detroit Red Wings have been very happy with the play of Tomas Tatar. The highly regarded prospect is playing in his fourth season in the AHL but is still only 22 years of age. He is tied for the Grand Rapids lead in goals with 11 and has 23 points, second on the squad. "The one thing that's been real noticeable is his consistency," Jim Nill, the Red Wings assistant GM said. "From the first game, he's been consistent and there haven't been the ups and downs." Look for Tatar to challenge for a spot on the Red Wings when the NHL finally returns to action.
