The Red Wings today announced that they have sent Justin Abdelkader down to Grand Rapids of the AHL, after the signing of Brad May to a contract yesterday. Abdelkader was getting some fourth line work with the club to start the season, but the addition of May gives the team a little more grit in the line-up, something they must have felt they lacked in their opening series against the Blues in Stockholm.
Abdelkader was added to the Sheet this season in the rookie/young players box, Box 9. I know he was taken in some instances, but certainly not all of them. I can't see this being a full-time demotion down to the minors, as he'll likely be the first player called up if an injury is to have occurred on the team. He may not be of much use to you, if you have on the Sheet or on a different fantasy team, but don't rush quite yet to change him, unless you have a lock on someone else.
