Simon Edvinsson Will Report to Red Wings Camp Without Contract
The 23-year-old defenseman would report while unsigned as Detroit waits to resolve its general manager vacancy, LeBrun said.
- RFA Simon Edvinsson intends to attend Detroit Red Wings training camp next week unsigned, waiting for the organization to resolve its ongoing general manager search before resuming contract negotiations.
- Since Steve Yzerman resigned in July to advise owner Christopher Ilitch, the Red Wings have lacked permanent leadership. Tigers GM Jeff Greenberg declined the vacant role on Monday.
- Edvinsson established himself as one of Detroit's most important young pieces last season, recording nine goals for 25 points in 72 games while averaging more than 22 minutes per night.
- Shawn Horcoff manages hockey operations on an interim basis while the organization searches for a permanent general manager. Edvinsson's unsigned status underscores the urgency of filling the vacancy.
- Edvinsson's commitment to attending camp prevents a holdout, allowing him to prepare with teammates while the Red Wings finalize their leadership search before the season begins.
