Daily Faceoff’s Steven Ellis posted an un-ranked list of the Top 20 NHL Prospects to watch over the course of the NCAA Division 1 hockey season, and one Red Wings prospect made the list:
Trey Augustine, G, Michigan State (Detroit Red Wings)
After posting a near-perfect record in 2022-23, Augustine secured gold at the 2024 World Juniors and won the Big Ten championship while earning tournament MVP honors. Add in a few really good appearances at the World Championship and Augustine is truly on the top of his game. He isn’t huge at just 6-foot-1, but he has a winning pedigree, a great glove hand and an outstanding foundation to build on. Augustine is one of the best goaltending prospects based on just pure skill right now and was a big reason why Michigan State was a threat every time they hit the ice.
