  • Taro Hirose: Headed to Germany

    Hirose agreed to terms on a one-year deal with EHC Munchen of the DEL on Friday.

    Hirose spent the entirety of the 2023-24 campaign in the minors with AHL Grand Rapids, registering nine goals and 27 helpers in 54 regular-season contests. The Michigan State product has appeared in 60 NHL contests for Detroit, notching four goals and 16 assists. The move overseas could mark the end of the 28-year-old's NHL career.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Lands on waivers

    Hirose was placed on waivers Friday, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

    Hirose managed only three NHL games last season, so it's no surprise that the 27-year-old was unable to crack the Detroit lineup. He'll begin 2023-24 with AHL Grand Rapids if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Sent down to minors

    Hirose was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Wednesday.

    Hirose has no points, a hit and two blocks in three games with the Red Wings this season. At the AHL level in 2022-23, he's contributed 15 goals and 56 points in 69 outings with Grand Rapids.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Summoned from AHL

    Hirose was brought up from AHL Grand Rapids on Monday under emergency conditions.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Returned to minors

    Hirose was sent back to AHL Grand Rapids on Wednesday.

    Hirose made his season debut against the Penguins on Tuesday in which he notched one shot, one hit and one block in 7:57 of ice time. If Alex Chiasson (undisclosed) is unable to play against the Hurricanes on Thursday, the 26-year-old Hirose could be called back up prior to puck drop.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Elevated from minors

    Hirose was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids on Tuesday under emergency conditions.

    Hirose hasn't played in an NHL game since the end of the 2021-22 campaign, suiting up against the Maple Leafs on April 26. Considering the winger was added under emergency conditions, there could be another injury among the Wings' forwards. If Hirose plays against the Penguins on Tuesday, it would likely be in a bottom-six role where he shouldn't be expected to log significant minutes.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Waived Sunday

    Hirose was waived by the Red Wings on Sunday, per CapFriendly.

    Hirose has 20 points in 57 career NHL games but he's played just 21 of those in the last two years. Expect the 26-year-old to see action with Detroit and AHL Grand Rapids again this season.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Inks extension

    Hirose signed a two-year contract extension with Detroit on Saturday.

    Hirose has appeared in a handful of NHL contests, posting 20 points in 57 games since 2018-19. The 25-year-old was great with AHL Grand Rapids last season, ringing up 53 points in 59 games, and thus should compete for a bottom-six big-club role in 2022-23.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Let go Friday

    Hirose was placed on waivers Friday, per CBS Sports.

    Hirose was originally listed in Detroit's lineup for Friday's season finale against the Devils but was waived at some point during the day. The 25-year-old tallied four points in 15 NHL games this season.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Summoned by parent club

    Hirose was recalled by the Red Wings on Saturday.

    Although he's been recalled, at this point it isn't clear if Hirose will be in the lineup for Saturday's matinee matchup with Pittsburgh. He's picked up four points through 12 top-level appearances this season.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Assigned to AHL affiliate

    Hirose was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Wednesday.

    Hirose will likely continue to bounce between levels down the stretch. He's picked up four points through 12 top-level appearances this season.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Back up to big club

    Hirose was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids on Tuesday.

    Hirose has been bouncing between the NHL and AHL as an emergency recall. When he has gotten onto the ice, Hirose has offered low-end fantasy value considering he has managed just four points in 12 contests. Even if he does suit up against Ottawa on Tuesday, Hirose figures to fill a bottom-six role in which he'll see limited minutes.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Returned to AHL affiliate

    Hirose was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Friday.

    Hirose has appeared in eight straight games with the Red Wings, picking up one helper over that span, so he could be back with the big club sooner rather than later.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Strikes on power play

    Hirose scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken.

    Hirose gave the Red Wings a 2-0 lead with his second-period marker, his first since the 2019-20 campaign. The 25-year-old has picked up three points, including two on the power play, in four games since he was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids. He'll likely stick in a fourth-line role for now, but his place on the roster should be safe for a while with Robby Fabbri (lower body) out for the season and Carter Rowney (undisclosed) and Mitchell Stephens (lower body) still lacking a timeline to return.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Scores first points of season

    Hirose added two assists in a 7-5 loss to the Oilers on Tuesday.

    Hirose was added to the taxi squad from AHL Grand Rapids on Sunday.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Sent down Sunday

    Hirose was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Sunday, per CapFriendly.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Joins Red Wings

    Hirose was called up from AHL Grand Rapids on Wednesday.

    Hirose leads the Griffins with 19 points in 22 contests this season, and this will be his first NHL call-up of the season. The 25-year-old could enter the lineup immediately with Michael Rasmussen and Robby Fabbri entering the NHL's COVID-19 protocols ahead of Thursday's game against the Hurricanes.

  • Red Wings' Taro Hirose: Re-ups for one year

    Hirose signed a one-year contract with Detroit on Tuesday.

    Hirose was limited to just six appearances with the Wings last year in which he garnered two assists, 10 shots and two blocks while averaging 14:22 of ice time. The 25-year-old winger is far from a lock for the Opening Night lineup against the Lightning on Oct. 14 and may have to split his time between the NHL and AHL.
