The Detroit Red Wings have placed defenseman Brian Lashoff on waivers.

Why would they do such a thing?

Here’s Chuck Pleiness of the Macomb Daily to explain:

Unless he’s claimed, of course. The 24-year-old has appeared in 11 games for the Wings this season, registering two assists while averaging 13:17 of ice time.

Lashoff is signed through next season.

Update from Ansar Khan of MLive.com:

Marchenko, a right-shooting d-man, has two goals and 15 assists in 42 games for the Griffins this season.
