Red Wings prospect and 2023 draft pick Trey Augustine is all business: when myself, the Hockey News’s Sam Stockton and The Athletic’s Max Bultman spoke with the affable goaltender from South Lyon, Trey let us know that the Americans have one goal: to win the gold medal at the World Junior Championship.
That apparently starts now, because the Americans on Team White and Team Blue have been practicing full-out with battle drills and combative play from the first drop of the puck today at USA Hockey Arena.
Augustine also talks about preparing for his freshman season at Michigan State by spending the last month in East Lansing and how he’s incorporated what he learned at the Red Wings’ Summer Development Camp into his routines.
