Red Wings Prospect Camp Roster Revealed

Two first-round picks will be leading the Detroit Red Wings into their NHL prospect games against the Dallas Stars in Traverse City.

Center Nate Danielson (ninth overall, 2023) and right-winger Michael Brandsegg-Nygard (15th overall, 2024) will be heading the list of players who will be on future watch for Detroit. They are among seven Red Wings draftees who will be suiting up for the two games against the Stars.

With key knowledge gained from a brief taste of pro hockey with @griffinshockey in April, @DetroitRedWings prospect @shai_buium feels more prepared for what’s ahead of him in 2024-25.

Others include defenseman Shai Buium (36th overall, 2021), centers Emmitt Finnie (201st, 2023) and Ondrej Becher (80th, 2024), and goalies Carter Gylander (191st, 2019) and Landon Miller (126th, 2024). Left-wingers Hunter Johannes, who played last season with the AHL Grand Rapids Griffins, and Alexandre Doucet, who split his rookie pro campaign between the Griffins and ECHL Toledo Walleye, are also playing.

Red Wings fans will get a good look at offseason free-agent addition left-winger Jakub Rychlovsky, who led the Czech Extraliga in goals last season. Left-winger Carson Bantle and center Gabriel Seger, free-agent additions to the Griffins, are also on the roster. As well, goalie Gage Alexander, acquired from Anaheim in the Robby Fabbri trade, will be sharing in the netminding chores. He spent last season in the ECHL with Tulsa.

Free Agent Invites Rounding Out Red Wings Roster

The remainder of the team will be comprised of free agent invites. They’ll all be hoping to make enough of an impression so that the Red Wings will be extending them an invitation to the club’s main training camp.

Among the hopefuls in this group are right-wingers Borya Valis (Prince George, WHL), Charlie Paquette (Guelph, OHL) and Dylan Edwards (Erie, OHL), centers Chase Lefebvre (Peterborough, OHL), Brayden Edwards (Lethbridge, WHL), defensemen Matthew Virgilio (Sault Ste. Marie, OHL), Bauer Dumanski (Prince George, WHL) John Van Mulligen (Medicine Hat, WHL), Blake Smith (Flint, OHL), Marcus Kearsey (Charlottetown, QMJHL) and Zack Sandhu (Oshawa, OHL).
