Detroit — Tyler Wright, the Red Wings director of amateur scouting, had a message for the rest of his staff — more than a dozen scouts scattered across North America and Europe — before they packed up and headed to Detroit this weekend, for the pre-draft meetings which began Sunday at Little Caesars Arena and will run through Thursday.
“Bring your pillow,” Wright said, “and your boxing gloves.”
He laughs, knowing cooler heads will prevail. This won’t be some old-time hockey line brawl.
