Per the Hockey Writers’ Mark Scheig:
Details on this will be out in the coming weeks. Believe that this year's Traverse City Prospect's tournament will be just four teams.

Red Wings
Stars
Blue Jackets
Maple Leafs
The Red Wings have attempted to sustain their 8-team prospect tournament over the past couple of seasons, but every other team seems to want to start its own 2-to-5-team tournament, so the tournament may remain a “round robin”-formatted affair.
Update: Per Sean Shapiro:
Can confirm this. Starts sept 14 https://t.co/I88DpriLrR
