"It took about three years but the Red Wings finally have Fabian Brunnstrom.

Brunnstrom, a Swedish forward who was a much-publicized undrafted free agent in 2008, will come to training camp on a pro tryout.

"It's about competition, and if he comes in and plays better than someone else, we'll find a place (for him)," Jim Nill, the Wings' assistant general manager, said. "Things probably haven't gone as he would have liked, but this is an opportunity."

Brunnstrom, 26, signed with the Stars after a hyped free-agent tour and scored three goals in his first NHL game. He wound up with 17 goals and 12 assists in his rookie season in 55 games.

But Brunnstrom, who's 6-foot-1 and 206 pounds, only had two goals and nine assists in 44 games with Dallas the following season, and last season was traded to Toronto."
