Eemil Viro is among the players cut from the Red Wings' roster, as the team finalizes its lineup for the upcoming season. He will report to the Grand Rapids Griffins, contributing to the ongoing development of the team's prospects.

Eemil Viro faced challenges during the game against the Maple Leafs, particularly in physical battles. A notable moment occurred when he was hit by Ryan Reaves while trying to retrieve the puck after Danielson was outmuscled. This incident underscored the need for Viro and his teammates to improve their ability to handle physical play, as it directly contributed to a goal against the Red Wings. As the team prepares for the regular season, Viro's ability to navigate such situations will be crucial for his development and the team's defensive effectiveness.
