The Detroit Red Wings have eight exhibition games to sort out their roster decisions for the 2023-24 season.
The preseason schedule was released Thursday; the regular-season slate is expected to be released in July. The Wings begin their exhibition season on Sept. 26 against the Pittsburgh Penguins at Little Caesars Arena.
While veterans use exhibition games to get their timing fine-tuned, it's generally the younger players who are fun to watch. Will forward Marco Kasper, the team's first-round pick from 2022, make the team? He got into one game this past spring before a lower-body injury waylaid plans to have him play more.
