Here is the news about the Detroit Red Wings, including prospects like Michael Brandsegg-Nygard, former players like Brendan Shanahan and Henrik Zetterberg, and present players like Mortiz Seider and Lucas Raymond.

Talking about Michael Brandsegg-Nygard
In a recent article, Kulfan provides insight into Detroit's newest top prospect, Michael Brandsegg-Nygård, who impressed at the development camp. Daniel Cleary shared some observations:
«What stood out for the Wings was Brandsegg-Nygård's frame, a sturdy 6-foot-1, 207 pounds, and the fact he knew how to use his body to an advantage. ‘You can see he's strong protecting the puck, and he can shoot it very well,' Cleary said. ‘Like every young kid, we look at their testing, and they have to get stronger, which they will as they get older and more mature. His skating, he knows he's got to work on, and he's driven to work on.'»

The article also touches on newcomer Jakub Rychlovsky.
Shanahan remembering Henrik Zetterberg days
Here's a treat for Red Wings fans: an archived article about Henrik Zetterberg just as he was emerging as an NHL superstar. Brendan Shanahan reminisces about Zetterberg's early days:
«The new kid arrived in Hockeytown with a mighty reputation and the reigning Stanley Cup champion Red Wings – McCarty in particular – wanted to test his mettle. The kid, 21 at the time, passed the test. ‘He's an unbelievable player,' says Shanahan. ‘I remember Mac saying, «Not only is this kid tough, he's pretty solid.» I think he knocked the wind out of Mac.'»

Brand new contract for Brock Faber
In non-Red Wings news, the Minnesota Wild signed Brock Faber to an 8-year deal worth $68 million. This deal could influence the Red Wings' negotiations with RFAs Moritz Seider and Lucas Raymond. Given Faber's contract, Seider's camp might seek an 8-year deal worth at least $72 million.
