Michael Rasmussen won't need to pack his bags.
The Detroit Red Wings forward will remain with the big club for the season, head coach Jeff Blashill said, according to Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.
Rasmussen will play his 10th NHL game Tuesday, effectively burning the first year of his entry-level contract and putting to rest the possibility he would be reassigned to the WHL's Tri-City Americans.
Detroit selected Rasmussen with the ninth overall pick in the 2017 draft. He's picked up one assist across nine appearances this season.
