    #RedWings have acquired/re-signed 3 players over past couple weeks whose contracts are up this year and could possibly be moved at the deadline for draft picks (Gagner, Staal, Ryan). They have 9 picks in 2021 including 3 in the 2nd round and 2 in the 3rd.

    #RedWings have signed the right-shot defenseman they were seeking, getting Troy Stecher on a 2-year deal ($1.7 million cap hit). He spent four seasons with #Canucks and had 5-12--17 in 69 games last season (2-1--3 in 17 playoff games). 5-10, 186.

    DET prospect Jonatan Berggren is on some kind of heater. Points in all 6 SHL games this season.
    Nine points in six games.

    This popped up on my feed a few times today so figured it was worth noting. VERY early but still a great start for a 20 year old.

    Detroit's 2nd round pick in what I hope is their eventually great 2018 draft. 33rd overall sandwiched in between the Veleno (30th) and McIsaac (36th) picks.

    As promised (to myself), here is the breakdown of the Wings' picks, from mlive, as well as where some rankings had them.

    1. Lucas Raymond
    Dobber: 3
    Button: 9
    HockeyWriters: 2

    Position: Left wing
    Club: Frolunda (Sweden, SHL)
    Selected: First round (No. 4)
    Height/Weight: 5-11/170
    Shoots: Left

    Draper: “Every time we watched him play, we came away with a lot of comments amongst our group of how smart of a player he was. That’s something that is very high on our list of prospects that we draft. We want to be a smart, intelligent, competitive team and we think Lucas Raymond has a lot of those qualities we look for in a prospect.”

    2. William Wallinder
    Dobber: 44
    Button: 18
    HockeyWriters: 33

    Position: Defenseman
    Club: Modo (Sweden, Allsvenskan)
    Selected: Second round (No. 32)
    Height/Weight: 6-4/191
    Shoots: Left
    Draper: “He has the ability to get bigger and strong, something that he’s going to need to do. He’s playing in Allsvenskan right now, against men, he’s going to get tested night in and night out. He knows he has to get stronger. But you’re not going to draft them just because they’re big, you want to draft them because they can skate, make a good first pass and that’s what we felt we got in William.”

    3. Theodor Niederbach
    Dobber: 36
    Button: 64
    HockeyWriters: 43

    Position: Center
    Club: Frolunda (Sweden, J-20)
    Selected: Second round (No. 51)
    Height/Weight: 5-11/172
    Shoots: Right
    Draper: “He’s a high-end skilled playmaking centerman. Every time I talked to Hakan (director of European scouting Andersson) and discussed Niederbach with our other Swedish scout, Thomas Carlsson, the one thing they kept coming back to was how creative and how smart of a hockey player he was. He does have to get bigger and stronger, but he can do some special things with the puck.”

    4. Cross Hanas
    Dobber: 70
    Button:73
    HockeyWriters: 89

    Position: Left wing
    Club: Portland (WHL)
    Selected: Second round (No. 55)
    Height/Weight: 6-0/167
    Shoots: Left
    Yzerman: “He’s a smooth skating, skilled left winger, got a good nose around the net.”

    5. Donovan Sebrango
    Dobber: ??
    Button: ??
    HockeyWriters: 155

    Position: Defenseman
    Club: Kitchener (OHL)
    Selected: Third round (No. 63)
    Height/Weight: 6-1/189
    Shoots: Left
    Draper: “Good-skating D-man, he plays with a physical edge.”

    6. Eemil Viro
    Dobber: 67
    Button: 31
    HockeyWriters: 107

    Position: Defenseman
    Club: TPS (Finland)
    Selected: Third round (No. 70)
    Height/Weight: 6-0/165
    Shoots: Left
    Draper: “Eemil was one of the best interviews that we had on our calls, just a full character kid, has real leadership qualities and I know Antonin (Routa, European scout) was real excited about him. He’s a six-footer but he knows how to play the game, he plays the game the right way.”

    7. Sam Stange
    Dobber: ??
    Button: ??
    HockeyWriters: ??

    Position: Right wing
    Club: Wisconsin (NCAA)
    Selected: Fourth round (No. 97)
    Height/Weight: 6-0/200
    Shoots: Right
    Draper: “He was a heck of a baseball player growing up. He was Mr. Baseball and Mr. Hockey. Talking to our scouts, we feel he’s a really good athlete. I briefly spoke to Tony (Wisconsin coach Granato), he’s really excited about having Sam in the program.”

    8. Jan Bednar
    Dobber: ??
    Button: ??
    HockeyWriters: 120

    Position: Goaltender
    Club: Acadie-Bathurst (QMJHL)
    Selected: Fourth round (No. 107)
    Height/Weight: 6-4/196
    Catches: Left
    Draper: “Probably two of the best games I saw him play were in tournaments against the (U.S.) development program, in November and February, and he was excellent in both those games. Phil Osaer, our goaltending development coach, is really excited about adding Bednar.”

    9. Alex Cotton
    Dobber:
    Button:
    HockeyWriters: 97

    Position: Defenseman
    Club: Lethbridge (WHL)
    Selected: Fifth round (No. 132)
    Height/Weight: 6-2/175
    Shoots: Right
    Draper: “I saw some highlights of his goals and he had a big year and that’s exciting. Alex was a good interview, a real good self-assessment of where he’s at as a hockey player and what he needs to improve on and that’s impressive for an 18, 19 year old kid. He’s that defenseman that has the ability to produce offense.”

    10. Kyle Aucoin

    Position: Defenseman
    Club: Tri-City (USHL)
    Selected: Sixth round (No. 156)
    Height/Weight: 5-10/164
    Shoots: Left
    Draper: “I’ve watched Kyle over the years and he’s a smart, competitive kid. He’s 5-11, maybe a little taller. It’s funny when you hear that his dad (former NHL player Adrian Aucoin) had a growth spurt when he was 18, 19, so we hope Kyle gets that as well. Just a terrific skater, a real competitive kid.”

    11. Kienan Draper

    Position: Right wing
    Club: Chilliwack (BCHL)
    Selected: Seventh round (No. 187)
    Height/Weight: 6-0/187
    Shoots: Right
    Draper: “When you start talking about inner drive and compete, he has that. He earned his position on our draft list by continuing to get better. He loves the gym, which is great, he loves being on the ice.”

    12. Chase Bradley
    Position: Left wing
    Club: Sioux City (USHL)
    Selected: Seventh round (No. 203)
    Height/Weight: 5-11/180
    Shoots: Left
    Draper: “Another player our U.S. scouts were real excited about. Very competitive kid. He had a nice year last year in the USHL. The trajectory would be that he would be able to have a better year this year. He’s going to Northeastern (in 2021-22), he’s on a good path.”

    Haha they're just filling roster spots ...but if you're talking in terms of future trade assets then yes I agree.

    More moves have to be coming though because they have way too many forwards.....

    Mantha - Larkin - Bertuzzi
    Zadina - Filppula - Namestnikov
    Fabbri - Nielsen - Ryan
    Erne - Glendening - Helm

    Gagner
    Svech Sr (waiver exempt)
    Ramussen
    Timashov
    Givani Smith

    Predictions from Helene St.James on the Wings' opening night roster given all of the additions and the players currently on loan to Europe:

    That has created openings, but they won't be filled by top prospects. Lucas Raymond, Yzerman’s top pick in 2020, is staying in Sweden for the season. It’s unlikely we’ll even see Yzerman’s first-round pick from 2019, Moritz Seider, because he’s playing in Sweden, too. The only way Seider may appear in 2021 is if his Swedish team, Rögle, finishes while the NHL is still in action. Other top prospects who aren’t expected to be recalled from their loans to European teams include Joe Veleno and Gustav Lindstrom (Jared McIsaac, who had been loaned to a Finnish team, is injured). Michael Rasmussen may stay in Europe, too, depending on what’s going on with the AHL.
    Forwards
    Valtteri Filppula-Robby Fabbri-Anthony Mantha

    We know Larkin, Mantha and Bertuzzi have chemistry, but I’d like to see Mantha with more of a playmaker than Larkin and Fabbri could fit that bill. He has played more center than wing in his career, and he’s creative with the puck. Filppula was one of many Wings who didn’t have a good 2019-20, but he has way longer history as a dependable two-way forward who makes deft passes and is sound defensively, and adds a responsible veteran presence to the line.
    Tyler Bertuzzi-Dylan Larkin-Bobby Ryan

    I think Ryan would fit well with Larkin and Bertuzzi, adding a big, right-shot dimension to make that line more dangerous. Ryan is super motivated to get his career rebooted after being bought out by Ottawa, and it was Larkin he called before signing to make sure he was going to a team that hadn’t accepted losing. Bertuzzi will do what he does, which is add grit and a scoring presence around the net.

    Luke Glendening-Vladislav Namestnikov-Filip Zadina

    Namestnikov was one of Yzerman’s free-agent signings, someone he drafted while GM of the Tampa Bay Lightning. He can play center or wing, is an excellent skater, shooter and passer. Glendening is an excellent skater and sound defensive presence. Zadina could thrive on this line, because opponents will focus their best defenders on the top two lines. Zadina is on loan in Europe, but he’s one of the prospects who is expected to be recalled.

    Adam Erne-Darren Helm or Frans Nielsen-Sam Gagner

    The Nielsen/Helm line will see most of its minutes from special teams — those two and Erne are solid penalty killers, and Gagner, who also shoots right, will be on one of the power play units. This is also Evgeny Svechnikov’s best chance to show he belongs in the lineup over either Helm or Nielsen.
