The Red Wings nabbed a solid defenseman in Adam Boqvist earlier in this mock draft. Having the 4th overall pick should land a very good prospect and Boqvist is likely going to be that kind of player, but the Red Wings weren’t done there. They hold pick number 30. It’s quite the benefit for a team that is trying to rebuild and having to forego numerous top picks in the first round for years.
With the 30th pick of the 2018 Hockey Wilderness Mock Draft, the Red Wings select forward Ty Dellandrea from the Flint Firebirds.
