As the Detroit Red Wings handicap who to choose with their first selection in the 2019 draft, Caufield stands out for how he could potentially boost the rebuild. He has spent so much time doing wrist curls and other upper body workouts that shooting the puck has become a muscle memory.
Caufield is definitely on the list of players I would like to see Steve Yzerman and the Wings draft. I don’t really care if he’s on the small side. That doesn’t scare me. All the kid does is score goals and a team can never have too many goal scorers.
