Diving into Red Wings hockey again with the upcoming prospect training camp is exciting, and some players are underrated entering it.

As the article notes, there are a few players worth watching who may not make the big club right away but could be crucial for the Detroit Red Wing's depth in the future.
Here's a quick look at the prospects highlighted:
1. Landon Miller (G)
Miller, drafted in the fourth round this past offseason, has a long road ahead but shows great promise with his 6'5» frame. While he's behind prospects like Sebastian Cossa, his potential as a future backup or organizational depth is intriguing. His first full season in the OHL saw solid numbers, including a 2.79 GAA and two shutouts, which give a good foundation for further development with the SOO Greyhounds this year.
2. Jakub Rychlovsky (F)
A bit of a wild card, Rychlovsky is a Czech prospect who had an impressive 2023-24 season in Extraliga, with 26 goals and 46 points. While he has no North American experience yet, his offensive potential makes him one to watch. He'll need to adjust to the style of play here, but his scoring touch could make him a valuable depth player.
3. Hunter Johannes (W)
At 26, Johannes is older than most prospects, but he's still worth watching due to his size and scoring ability. Injuries may have hampered his early development, but his numbers from the last few NCAA seasons show promise. With 12 goals in 31 games for the University of North Dakota last year, he could prove to be a late-blooming asset in the organization.
While none of these players are expected to make immediate impacts at the NHL level, their progress during camp will be interesting, especially as they push for roles within the AHL and potentially further down the line.
