Andreas Englund is heading to Motown.
The Detroit Red Wings claimed the veteran defenceman off waivers from the Calgary Flames on Saturday, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.
Englund, 30, signed with the Flames on a one-year, two-way deal this past off-season after spending the previous two years with the Nashville Predators.
He played one game with Calgary this pre-season, lacing up for 17:35 in Thursday's loss to the Seattle Kraken. The left-shot blue-liner also got into a fight and took three shots on goal.
The eight-year NHL veteran played just three games with Nashville in the 2025-26 season.
Over 200 career games with Nashville, Los Angeles, Chicago, Colorado and Ottawa, Englund has two goals, 20 points and a minus-26 rating.
After 61 players were placed on waivers on Friday, Englund was one of two claims Saturday, per Friedman. The Predators also claimed defenceman William Trudeau from the New York Rangers.
