It might not be the regular season quite yet, but the Detroit Red Wings prospect tournament starts this week, giving fans some Red Wings related hockey for the first time since May. It’s not the thaw to what is usually a much longer layoff, but it’s better because at least it’s a glimpse of the Red Wings loaded prospect pool.
Attention will be laser focused on Lucas Raymond, Joe Veleno Jonatan Berggren and Sebastian Cossa but as Alex pointed out yesterday, there are some other names to keep a very close eye on as things open up Thursday.
