redwings_boxBy @MichaelCaples –

The Detroit Red Wings continued with roster moves today, sending two players to Grand Rapids and placing three on injured reserve lists.

The team sent forward Louis-Marc Aubry and goaltender Tom McCollum to their AHL affiliate. Meanwhile, they placed Pavel Datsyuk, Anthony Mantha and Andy Miele (Grosse Pointe Woods) on injured reserve.

Datsyuk is on a seven-day injured reserve, retroactive to Sept. 22, which won’t have any impact on his regular-season eligibility.

Meanwhile, Mantha and Miele have been placed on the non-roster injured reserve list. They won’t count against the Red Wings’ regular-season roster.

Detroit’s current roster now stands at 34 players.
