Sam Navarro-Imagn Images Sam Navarro-Imagn Images In the AHL playoffs with the Grand Rapids Griffins , Detroit Red Wings 2024 first-round pick Michael Brandsegg-Nygard is feeling comfortable.

Discussing where his game is at today as compared to when he started the 2025-26 season with the Red Wings, that was the word Brandsegg-Nygard was choosing as the appropriate adjective. “More comfortable,” Brandsegg-Nygard said. “I mean, I feel like it helps with everything in the game.
