Comrie, who is 24, has played in just 5 NHL games since being drafted in the 2nd round of the 2013 NHL Draft. He has not played in a game this season.
Red Wings starter was forced to leave in the first period against the Toronto Maple Leafs with a lower-body (knee) injury. Does this mean he will be out for an extended period of time? If so, backup Jonathan Bernier would become the regular starter.
