It's more than likely that Detroit Red Wings first-round prospect will stay in North America
It seems like Michael Brandsegg-Nygard has a solid chance to stick in North America, given the high praise he's receiving from analysts and scouts.
His size, skating ability, offensive tools, and physical play make him an intriguing prospect for the Detroit Red Wings.
The upcoming rookie camp will be key in determining whether he stays. If he makes a strong impression in Traverse City, the Detroit Red Wings may keep him in North America rather than send him back to the SHL. His "downhill" style, strong competitive level, and ability to contribute in multiple areas of the game could be exactly what Detroit needs, especially as they continue to shape their roster for the future.
Given the positive reviews from hockey experts like Michael Farkas and Almen Bibic, Brandsegg-Nygard seems capable of leaping to North America. It will come down to how he performs in camp and how quickly he can adjust to the smaller ice surface and faster pace of the NHL game.
