Sportsnet’s Rory Boylen posted “one thing to remember” about each and every one of the NHL’s 32 teams as training camps approach, and he offers this tidbit about the Red Wings:
Detroit Red Wings: The rebuilding team that made some winning moves
Entering Year 4 of the Steve Yzerman rebuild, the Red Wings made some surprising veteran additions over the summer. It’s not that this collection of players (Andrew Copp, David Perron, Ben Chiarot, Dominik Kubalik, Olli Maatta) will necessarily be playing leading roles when the Wings emerge, but together add a significant veteran presence and many complementary skills to the young core already in place. The Wings should be harder to play against this season than they have been in a while.
