The Traverse City Record-Eagle’s James Cook posted his first of many articles about the Red Wings’ prospect tournament and training camp, and Cook reports that this year’s 2023 Prospect Tournament is a little different (and not just because the field of teams has narrowed to four):
All remaining tickets to Prospects games are for sale only at the door, which opens one hour prior to each day’s first game. Tickets to all Prospects games and the first two days of Red Wings training camp (Sept. 21-22) are all general admission instead of assigned seating as they’ve been in past years.
“It’s critical (fans) understand that,” Rodes said. “They should get there early.”
Every game of the Prospect Tournament streams live on vimeo.com, with links available on Centre Ice’s website under DRW Events. All Red Wings games are be carried live on DetroitRedWings.com, Red Wings Facebook and YouTube.
“Ticket sales are ahead of last year a bit,” Centre Ice director Todd Spaulding said. “The Red-White game sold out quickly.”
Detroit’s Prospects roster includes first-round draft picks from each of the last three seasons — goaltender Sebastian Cossa (2021), center Marco Kasper (2022) and center Nate Danielson (2023). However, only three of the team’s 11 selections in the 2023 draft are on the squad, including Danielson, second-round defenseman Andrew Gibson and seventh-round center Emmitt Finnie.
