from Ted Kulfan of the Detroit News,
Drafting a defenseman would be preferred by the Red Wings, and especially a player who could potentially develop into a star caliber defenseman.
And there could be one available where the Red Wings draft at No. 6 in the first round in Bowen Byram.
But the Red Wings also wouldn’t mind an elite center. No team would turn its back on that. And in the June 21-22 Entry Draft in Vancouver, the top end of the first round will have plenty of outstanding centers available.
