The Detroit Red Wings and defenceman Simon Edvinsson are expected to talk again on Sunday as both sides look to get a deal done before the start of the regular season, TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun can confirm.
The restricted free agent did not play in any pre-season games for the Wings as he’s not currently under contract following the completion of his three-year, entry-level deal at the end of the 2025-26 campaign. Edvinsson, 23, was a solid blueliner for the Red Wings last season, scoring nine goals and 16 assists over 72 games.
Selected sixth overall by the Red Wings in 2021, the native of Sweden has 19 goals and 41 assists over 175 career games in Detroit. The Red Wings have been in state of turmoil recently after captain Dylan Larkin asked for a trade in June followed by Steve Yzerman stepping down from his role as general manager in July.
Larkin is still with the team, but had his captaincy stripped in September while Shawn Horcoff took over GM duties on an interim basis. Detroit opens their season on Friday against the visiting New York Rangers . Winners of 11 Stanley Cups, the Red Wings haven’t reached the playoffs in the last decade.
