UPDATE: Red Wings’ Jakub Kindl clears waivers

UPDATE (1:30 p.m. Sunday) – Jakub Kindl has cleared waivers, and he will now be expected to report to the Grand Rapids Griffins if there are no other line-up changes for the Wings. Per multiple reports, however, Detroit still needs to make another roster move to find cap space for Kyle Quincey’s return.

Unless someone is injured tonight, #RedWings will send Jakub Kindl to Grand Rapids, but need another move before activating Kyle Quincey.
