The Detroit Red Wings 5-2 loss to St. Louis in the Prospect Tournament certainly pumped the brakes on the prospect-palooza that had been sweeping the fanbase. Sebastian Cossa looked every bit of an 18-year-old goaltender, Jonatan Berggren exited with an injury and Lucas Raymond is well, Lucas Raymond.
Between some fans on Red Wings Twitter and the live chat on the streaming page of Youtube, some might thing that the prospect pool is doomed. The future of Detroit is not as bright sans Seider and Raymond.
Or it could be that everything is exactly as it should be when prospects are raw and fighting for their path to the big team?
