Red Wings prospect Dennis Cholowski signs with WHL’s Prince George Cougars

It sounds like Red Wings 2016 1st-round pick Dennis Cholowski will be wearing a different sweater next year — not one that dons the Griffin or the Fish. It was announced Monday that Cholowski has signed a standard contract with the WHL’s Prince George Cougars.

The Prince George Cougars are thrilled to announce that 1998-born defenceman Dennis Cholowski (Langley, B.C.) has signed a Standard WHL Player Agreement with the Prince George Cougars.

Originally selected by the Cougars in the 10th round (200th Overall) in the 2013 WHL Bantam Draft, the 6’0”, 170 pound Cholowski is one season removed from being selected 20th overall by the Detroit Red Wings in the 2016 NHL Draft.
