Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Scores late equalizer Saturday
Rasmussen scored a goal in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Bruins.
Rasmussen was the hero for the Red Wings after tying the game at the 18:06 mark of the third period with a tip-in. However, the Red Wings didn't complete the comeback and lost the game in the shootout. Rasmussen has four goals this season. He probably won't deliver much fantasy value from the fourth line this campaign, but he has 23 hits, eight points and 21 shots on net through 21 appearances.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Lands on injured reserve
Rasmussen (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, retroactive to Nov. 20.
Elmer Soderblom (undisclosed) was activated from IR in a corresponding move. The 26-year-old Rasmussen has clearly been dealing with the injury for a while, but it went unreported. He is eligible to return as soon as Friday's game versus the Lightning, but there is no timeline for his return yet.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Tallies in Thursday's win
Rasmussen scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Ducks.
Rasmussen was a healthy scratch in the Red Wings' previous game Sunday versus the Blackhawks after going without a point in five straight contests. He's now gotten on the scoresheet in the game after each of his two scratches this season. The 26-year-old has four points, 15 shots on net, 13 hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 15 appearances. His inconsistent playing time further lowers his already-minimal fantasy appeal.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Pair of points late in win
Rasmussen scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
Both of Rasmussen's points -- his first two of the year -- came on empty-net tallies as he helped the Red Wings knock off the defending champions. The 26-year-old has started 2025-26 in a fourth-line role, which is likely to hinder his scoring production. In addition to his two points, Rasmussen has three shots on net, four hits, four blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through four appearances this season.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Pots game-winner Friday
Rasmussen scored a goal and blocked four shots in Friday's 5-3 win over the Hurricanes.
Rasmussen's second-period tally stood as the game-winner. He had been limited to one assist over his previous eight contests, a slump deep enough to see him demoted to the fourth line for Friday's game. He's now at 11 goals, 19 points, 92 shots on net, 129 hits, 58 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating across 70 appearances this season, his lowest scoring pace in four years.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Posts power-play assist
Rasmussen notched a power-play assist, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.
Rasmussen has a goal and an assist over 10 contests since returning from a head injury. The 25-year-old has been on the first line for the last two games, which may help ignite his offense down the stretch if he stays in that spot. For the season, he's at 18 points (four on the power play), 88 shots on net, 120 hits, 50 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating through 66 appearances. Rasmussen may be worth streaming if his point production ramps up.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Grabs first goal since return
Rasmussen scored a goal, had five shots on net, dished two hits and blocked two shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
Rasmussen lit the lamp in the third period, earning his first point since his return from a head injury. Overall, he is up to 10 goals, 17 points, 84 shots on net and 113 hits in 61 appearances this season. The 25-year-old center is currently on the fourth line and back to his role of bringing physicality to Detroit's bottom six. While his fantasy value has a low ceiling, Rasmussen could be a good add for banger leagues down the stretch if he can find the goal-scoring consistency he found last month.

Rasmussen (upper body) will remain out of the lineup versus Columbus on Thursday, according to Ansar Khan of MLive.com.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Won't travel with team
Rasmussen (upper body) won't travel with the Red Wings ahead of Tuesday's game against the Wild, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.
Rasmussen sustained an upper-body injury during Sunday's overtime win over the Ducks after taking a hit to the head in the second period, and he'll be unavailable for at least one game. Andrew Copp (undisclosed) will also be sidelined, so Christian Fischer could enter the lineup Tuesday. Head coach Todd McLellan said Monday that Rasmussen is considered day-to-day, so the 25-year-old should be considered questionable for Thursday's game against the Blue Jackets.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Dealing with upper-body injury
Rasmussen is being evaluated for an upper-body injury following Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Ducks, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Rasmussen took a hit to the head from Trevor Zegras late in the second period Sunday and went to the locker room immediately afterward. Rasmussen didn't return to the game, and head coach Todd McLellan said after the matchup that the 25-year-old is still being evaluated. It's not yet clear whether Rasmussen will be available against the Wild on Tuesday, but if he's forced to sit out, Christian Fischer could enter the lineup since Andrew Copp (undisclosed) won't suit up against Minnesota.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Scores in shootout win
Rasmussen scored a goal while adding two shots, one hit and one blocked shot in Thursday's 3-2 shootout win over Edmonton.
Rasmussen found the back of the net for the second time over his last three games, and that snapped a stretch of just one point across a 16-game stretch. Rasmussen has 15 points across 50 games this season, so even if he's on a good stretch over the last three games, it's not enough to make him relevant in most fantasy formats.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Cleared to play against Vancouver
Rasmussen (undisclosed) is available for Monday's game against the Canucks, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Rasmussen suffered an injury after scoring an empty-netter against the Lightning on Saturday, but he won't be forced to miss game time due to the ailment. Over 12 appearances this month, the 25-year-old has logged a goal, an assist, 21 hits, eight blocked shots, two PIM and a minus-3 rating while averaging 12:17 of ice time.

Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Hurt after scoring empty-netter
Rasmussen (undisclosed) was injured late in the third period of Saturday's 2-0 win over the Lightning, Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site reports.
Rasmussen scored an empty-netter but was injured in a scrum after the tally. Bruce adds that Rasmussen was being evaluated after the contest and seems to be okay, but it'll be worth checking on his status prior to Monday's game versus the Kings. The goal ended a 16-game stretch in which the 25-year-old was limited to one assist.
