Dries scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Grand Rapids' 6-3 win over Texas on Wednesday.
Dries posted his second multi-point effort of the season. He's up to five goals, 13 points, 30 shots on net and a plus-8 rating over 13 appearances. Dries last played in the NHL in 2022-23, but he could be a veteran call-up option for a bottom-six spot if the Red Wings need forward depth later in the year.

Red Wings' Sheldon Dries: Available on waivers
Dries was placed on waivers by the Red Wings on Wednesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Dries spent the entirety of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors with AHL Grand Rapids, generating 25 goals and 15 helpers in 65 regular-season tilts before adding two points in three playoff appearances. While the 31-year-old does have NHL experience, he hasn't played in a game in the league since 2022-23, when he suited up 63 times for the Canucks. If he can keep scoring at a high level in the minors, Dries may force his way into the Red Wings' roster at some point.

Red Wings' Sheldon Dries: Returns to AHL
Dries was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Tuesday.
Dries' demotion could be a good sign for Michael Rasmussen's (upper body) return Thursday versus Utah. It's also possible Dries getting sent down will be a paper move or will lead to another forward getting recalled. The 30-year-old did not play during his eight-day stint with the big club.

Red Wings' Sheldon Dries: Elevated from minors
Dries was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids on Monday.
This is the first promotion of the season for Dries, who passed through waivers back in October. If the 30-year-old center were to get into a game for the Red Wings, it would be his debut for the organization since signing a two-year deal back in July. The Michigan native has been putting up solid offensive production in the minors this year, generating 19 goals and eight helpers in 48 outings with the Griffins.

Canucks' Sheldon Dries: Scores lone goal in loss
Dries scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 6-1 loss to the Red Wings.

Canucks' Sheldon Dries: Pots goal Saturday
Dries scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Flames.
Dries has enjoyed playing against Calgary this year -- two of his four goals on the campaign have come against the Canucks' division rivals. He got the Canucks on the board by batting in a loose puck in the second period. The 28-year-old has eight points, 35 shots on net, 21 hits and a minus-7 rating through 20 contests, but he's still among the mix of bottom-six players that could serve as healthy scratches from time to time.
