The Red Wings powerplay might be in trouble in the near future
The Red Wings look like they will have a solid powerplay in the future with prospects such as Nate Danielson and Axel Sandin Pellikka making their way to being NHL players.
With those two prospects and players such as Larkin, Seider, DeBrincat and Raymond, the Wings will have a solid powerplays in years to come.
The worry comes for next season as top contributors on the man advantage such as Patrick Kane, David Perron and Daniel Sprong are all set to be free agents this summer.
The Wings will need to figure something out quickly for next season as a good powerplay goes a long way, the last 4 teams in the playoffs this year all ranked in the top 8 powerplays in the league.
