Detroit Red Wings: Training Camp Progress and First Cuts

The Detroit Red Wings played their annual Red and White game over the weekend. The Wings staff breaks up the roster into two teams for a competitive scrimmage.

Jeff Blashill and company try to get a good mix of veteran players and rookies on each team. Blashill skated a line that featured Andreas Athanasiou between Thomas Vanek and rookie Filip Zadina. The line has an opportunity to start the season as the Detroit Red Wings third line.

Athanasiou scored during the 3 on 3 play. That comes as no surprise with his blazing speed and all that open ice to work with.
