Lashoff will hang up his skates and call it a career, the Griffins announced Wednesday.
Lashoff spent the bulk of his professional career playing in the minors, logging 628 games for AHL Grand Rapids in which he notched 32 goals and 100 assists, plus another 20 points in 75 playoff contests. The Albany, New York native did see some action in the NHL with the Red Wings for whom he made 136 appearances and garnered 15 points. Undrafted coming out of the OHL, Lashoff put together a quality 14-year professional career.

Lashoff will head to the minors for now, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him back with the Red Wings prior to Tuesday's matchup with the Islanders. The 31-year-old blueliner hasn't appeared in an NHL contest since 2019-20.

Red Wings' Brian Lashoff: Recalled from AHL Grand Rapids
Rotowire
Lashoff was elevated from the minors Tuesday.
Lashoff hasn't appeared in an NHL game since 2019-20, when he appeared in nine contests for the Wings in which he generated one assist, six shots and six PIM. Even with Gustav Lindstrom (lower body) going on injured reserve, Lashoff is unlikely to see much in the way of minutes even if he does come down from the press box for a game or two.

Lashoff failed to break into a game for the Red Wings last season, instead spending the entire campaign in the minors with AHL Grand Rapids.

Rotowire
Detroit traded Lashoff to Columbus in exchange for a 2021 fourth-round pick as part of a three-team deal involving the Lightning on Saturday, Frank Seravalli of TSN.ca reports.

Red Wings' Brian Lashoff: Returned to minors
Rotowire
Lashoff was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Friday.
Lashoff stayed with the Wings for just one day before the club added Cody Goloubef off waivers to shore up the team's defensive group. Even if he makes his way back to the big club, Lashoff doesn't possess much fantasy appeal.

Red Wings' Brian Lashoff: Recalled Thursday
Rotowire
The Red Wings recalled Lashoff from AHL Grand Rapids under emergency conditions Thursday.
The 29-year-old will fill the roster spot vacated by Filip Hronek (head), who was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Lashoff has seen action with the big club already this season, skating in nine games and earning an assist. It's likely that Lashoff will provide depth to the defensive corps until Hronek is fully cleared to return.

Red Wings' Brian Lashoff: Bags assist Friday
Rotowire
Lashoff registered an assist, three blocked shots, two hits and two PIM in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Stars.
Lashoff has only made four appearances this season, and the assist was his first point. He's added nine hits and five blocks. The 29-year-old is nothing more than defensive depth -- he's never had more than six points in a campaign, and that total came in 2013-14. He should continue to see playing time while Jonathan Ericsson (face) is sidelined.

Red Wings' Brian Lashoff: Emergency recall
Rotowire
Lashoff was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids under emergency conditions Friday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
The Red Wings reportedly have one standard recall remaining, but the transaction for Lashoff doesn't count since it's deemed an emergency concerning the status of Jonathan Ericsson, who has a lower-body injury. It's been a great week for Lashoff, as he earned a two-year contract extension Wednesday, and the rearguard suddenly has an outside chance of being deployed for Saturday's matinee against the Islanders.

Red Wings' Brian Lashoff: Signs two-year extension
Rotowire
Lashoff signed on the dotted line of a two-year contract extension with the Red Wings on Wednesday.
Lashoff has yet to draw in for the Red Wings this season and has just six games under his best in the NHL since the 2014-15 campaign. While he's unlikely to make a big name for himself at the top level, Lashoff should continue to provide organizational depth along the blue line.

Red Wings' Brian Lashoff: Needed at top level
Rotowire
Lashoff was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids on Wednesday.
Lashoff helped Team USA win the gold medal in the 2010 World Junior Championship, and he's revered for having won the Calder Cup with the AHL's Griffin twice (2013, 2017). The Wings have called up the trusty defenseman since they find themselves thin on the blue line with Mike Green (lower body), Trevor Daley (foot) and Danny DeKeyser (hand) all in the training room due to their respective injuries.

Red Wings' Brian Lashoff: Headed back to the minors
Rotowire
Lashoff was sent down to AHL Grand Rapids on Friday.
Lashoff will have to wait a little while longer before making his season debut. Limited to three assists in 17 games with AHL Grand Rapids, the 28-year-old isn't worth a spot on any fantasy roster.
