Genborg signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Red Wings on Sunday.
Genborg's entry-level deal will begin next season. The 18-year-old winger will now report to AHL Grand Rapids for the remainder of the 2025-26 campaign on an amateur tryout. The 2025 second-round pick (No. 44 overall) generated nine goals, 25 points and a plus-8 rating across 43 games with Timra IK of the Swedish Hockey League this season.

Rotowire
Genborg logged an assist in Timra IK's 3-1 loss to the Vaxjo Lakers on Saturday in the SHL.
Genborg ended the regular season with a solid 25 points over 43 appearances. The Red Wings prospect looked good in growing his offense this year. Timra missed the SHL playoffs but also managed to avoid a relegation battle. Genborg has yet to sign his entry-level contract, so he would need to do that before coming over to North America.

Genborg logged two assists in Timra IK's 2-1 win over Djurgardens IF on Saturday in the SHL.
With the effort, Genborg is up to 21 points (nine goals, 12 assists) in 36 outings for Timra. He was limited to two goals in 28 appearances for Linkoping HC in the 2024-25 regular season, which also saw him play at the junior level for that club at times. He's been a full-time player in the SHL, aside from international duties, where he has 13 points in 16 games representing Sweden. That includes eight points in seven games at the World Junior Championship.

Rotowire
Genborg scored twice in Timra IK's 5-0 win over HV71 on Saturday.
Genborg continues to produce at a strong rate for Timra, racking up seven goals and six assists over 18 SHL games this season. The 18-year-old winger should be in contention for a World Junior roster spot next month, but he's showing he can already play alongside men in the SHL. Genborg may need another year or two to develop in Sweden, but it wouldn't be shocking to see him come to North America in the not-too-distant future.
