Lagesson was promoted from AHL Grand Rapids on Tuesday.
Lagesson has been bouncing back and forth between the NHL and AHL this season but has yet to appear in a game for the Red Wings. With Jeff Petry (lower body) questionable against the Bruins on Tuesday, the 28-year-old Lagesson will provide some emergency depth coverage -- though it's likely he will serve as a healthy scratch with Albert Johansson taking the open spot on the blue line.
