The Hockey News’s Ryan Kennedy posted a list of 100 NCAA Division 1 hockey players to watch this upcoming season, and several of those prospects are Red Wings property:
6. Trey Augustine, G, Michigan State – Freshmen goalies don’t get more hyped than Augustine, but the Detroit Red Wings pick has proven to be talented beyond his years already.
33. Shai Buium, D, Denver – Long, mobile and talented, Buium is ready for his junior campaign in Denver and now the Detroit Red Wings pick has younger brother Zeev to mentor.
58. Dylan James, LW, North Dakota – Two-way forward who doesn’t mind doing the corner work, James is a Detroit Red Wings pick coming off a solid freshman campaign.
70. Carter Gylander, G, Colgate – Veteran netminder coming off his best season with the Raiders, as the Detroit Red Wings pick rocked a .914 save percentage.
73. Red Savage, C, Michigan State – Transferring from Miami to the Spartans, Savage is an ace faceoff specialist and two-way center taken by the Detroit Red Wings.
77. Brady Cleveland, D, Wisconsin – Another biggie, Cleveland is a physical shutdown defenseman entering his first year with the Badgers. He’s a Detroit Red Wings pick.
