Nikita Zadorov is at the top of my list. The team lacks a physical presence, and someone who will stand up for teammates, qualities Zadorov brings with his aggressive style of play. His addition could instill a sense of toughness and solidarity among the players.
Elias Lindholm is a potential solution for the Red Wings' center depth and right-handed shooting needs. Despite a potentially high cost, his two-way play and consistency could justify the investment for long-term team stability.
Adam Boqvist represents a promising defensive option. Although still developing, his offensive abilities and right-handed shot could fill a current gap in Detroit's defensive lineup. The team's track record with developing defensemen makes Boqvist an intriguing prospect.
