GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday reassigned goaltender Jake Paterson from the ECHL’s Toledo Walleye to the Grand Rapids Griffins. In addition, the Griffins recalled forward Alden Hirschfeld and defenseman Scott Czarnowczan from the Walleye.

Detroit’s third choice (80th overall) in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, Paterson has split this season between the OHL’s Kitchener Rangers and Saginaw Spirit. In 24 games with Saginaw, Paterson accumulated a 12-11-1 record, a 3.48 goals against average and a 0.905 save percentage before being traded to Kitchener, where he posted a 14-10-2 regular season record with a 2.37 GAA and a 0.929 save percentage. The 20-year-old also suited up for six playoff games with the Rangers, producing a 2-4 record and a 5.18 GAA, before being reassigned to Toledo.

Hirschfeld, 27, has spent a majority of his 2014-15 campaign with the Walleye, ranking sixth on the team in scoring with 44 points (11-33—44), 21 penalty minutes and a plus-15 rating in 59 games. The Dallas, Texas, native has also appeared in 10 games with Grand Rapids, notching an assist and 10 PIM. Signed to a one-year contract to the Griffins last July, Hirschfeld has skated in 23 games with Grand Rapids since 2013, earning a goal, two assists, seven PIM and a plus-one rating.

The 23-year-old Czarnowczan has played in 27 games with Grand Rapids during his first professional season, tallying nine points (2-7—9), 26 PIM and a plus-10 rating. Czarnowczan secured his first AHL point (assist) versus Toronto on Dec. 19, before scoring his first goal on Feb. 6 versus Rochester. The Griffins re-signed Czarnowczan to a one-year contract on March 19. On top of his time with the Griffins, the Macomb, Mich., native has also notched 25 points (2-23—25), 12 PIM and a plus-13 rating in 29 games with Toledo.

Prior to turning pro, the 5-foot-11, 185-pound blueliner spent four seasons with the Ferris State Bulldogs, where he gathered 63 points (9-54—63) and 212 PIM in 141 collegiate games. In addition to captaining the Bulldogs during his senior season, Czarnowczan made an appearance with Ferris State in the 2012 NCAA Frozen Four Championship game.
