Red Wings Development Camp Gets Underway Monday
Detroit future on display
The Detroit Red Wings spent the weekend welcoming newcomers into the fold at the NHL entry draft. Now, the next step in the process is to indoctrinate them on all things they can expect to be receiving as a member of the organization.
The club will be playing host to their 2025 development camp, which returns to the Belfor Training Center inside Little Caesars Arena from June 30-July 3. The camp features on-ice skill development and off-ice workouts each day. It will be ending with a four-on-four game on Thursday, July 3.

“It’s a crash course in as much information as we can give these guys,” Red Wings assistant GM and director of amateur scouting Kris Draper said. “We want them to, obviously, understand the importance of training. It’s something that we put a big emphasis on for a lot of us that played and are still in the organization. That was something that meant a lot to all of us when we played. So we want to let them know the importance of training and obviously, training properly and training at the right time.
“And with that said, you have to eat at the right time. Know what to eat, know when to eat, I think is also very important, and then even on top of that, with the sleep. It’s probably something that a lot of these young players take for granted.”
Red Wings Camp Roster To Be Announced June 29
Players will be splitting into two teams – Team Howe and Team Lindsay. Sessions will be featuring daily on-ice instruction and skill development from a team of coaches. Leading the session will be the Red Wings player development staff led by Dan Cleary and Niklas Kronwall. Attendees will also be taking part in NHL-level off-ice workouts and attending presentations designed to be helping players transition to professional hockey, while receiving feedback from Red Wings coaches and management.
