Wallinder scored a goal and added two hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.
Wallinder has filled a part-time role as the Red Wings continue to balance his usage as well as Axel Sandin-Pellikka's early in the campaign. Through five outings, Wallinder has done fairly well, earning two goals, one assist, five shots on net, five hits, four blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating. Until his playing time steadies, the 24-year-old defenseman won't be a strong fantasy option.
