Red Wings general manager Ken Holland putting in miles of scouting

Detroit Red Wings general manager Ken Holland is cramming his schedule with scouting.

Today saw him travel to Toronto to catch the OHL playoff game between Mississauga and Peterborough. Next up is a trip to Kelowna, British Columbia, to see the Rockets take on the Seattle Thunderbirds in the Western Hockey League semifinals.

“I’m focused on the draft,” Holland told the Free Press this afternoon. “Got to see the kids. (I) was at under-18 worlds, got to see a lot of good games there.”

Holland spent last week in Slovakia taking in the U18 world championship -- the Wings had eight scouts there all together, Holland said.
