Detroit Red Wings prospect Noah Dower Nilsson will be sidelined for an extended period of time following shoulder surgery, as reported initially by Henrik Leman of Rackapucker.com.
Bob Duff of Detroit Hockey Now recently pointed out that Dower Nilsson’s name was missing when the Swedish roster was announced for this summer’s World Junior Showcase; now we know why.
The Detroit Red Wings discovered the shoulder issue during routine imaging at the teams’ development camp. Noah and his brother Liam, also a Detroit draft pick, had the procedure done.
