DETROIT MOVES TWO

Jan 10, 2014

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Detroit Red Wings on Friday recalled center Riley Sheahan from the Grand Rapids Griffins and reassigned forward Trevor Parkes from the ECHL’s Toledo Walleye to their AHL affiliate.

Sheahan, 22, has appeared in four games with the Wings this season, recording two points (0-2—2) and a plus-two rating. The St. Catharines, Ontario, native tallied two assists — his first career NHL points — in Detroit’s 5-4 shootout victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Dec. 21. Detroit’s first choice (21st overall) in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, Sheahan has recorded 18 points (8-10—18), a plus-one rating and 10 penalty minutes in 28 games with the Griffins this season.

Parkes, 22, leads the Walleye in scoring with 32 points (16-16—32) in 26 games this season. Since beginning his professional career in the 2011-12 season, Parkes has split shifts between the Walleye and the Griffins, tallying 66 points (34-32—66) in 49 games with Toledo and 17 points (5-12—17) in 84 games with Grand Rapids. The 6-foot-2, 202-pound forward has skated in four games with the Griffins this season, posting two PIM.

The Griffins will host the Iowa Wild at Van Andel Arena tonight at 7 p.m., followed by a rematch on Saturday at 7 p.m.
