The Detroit Red Wings busy off-season could’ve taken away a job or two from a deserving prospect. But can one sneak through?

The Detroit Red Wings just went out in free agency and made a plethora of moves as they look to take a step forward in their rebuild. However, they didn’t really make any trades so the depth that they once had- it’s still there.

Between Moritz Seider, Lucas Raymond, Joe Veleno, and Michael Rasmussen, the Red Wings have a lot of young guys with bright futures on their roster. But those aren’t the only names to watch for.

Given that they have been in rebuild mode for the last six years, the Red Wings have piled up quite a few good players through the draft and it’s getting close to the time that we’ll get to see them in the NHL.

But, the question is, now that all of those names that I have listed are no longer rookies, who are the players you need to watch for this season? Who has a chance to actually make the Red Wings roster?

Well, the easy answer is Sebastian Cossa and Simon Edvinsson however, it’s unlikely that we’ll actually see them in the NHL this season. Or at least not at the start. So, who do we need to put our eyes on in camp? Well, there is one name in particular to keep an eye on.
