Top five Detroit Red Wings prospects that could crack the lineup in 2024-25
For many Detroit Red Wings fans, the 2021-22 season is etched in memory of the arrivals of Moritz Seider and Lucas Raymond.
Their impact was profound, with Moritz Seider winning the Calder Trophy and Lucas Raymond being a finalist. Since then, however, the Detroit Red Wings have not featured a rookie on their opening night roster, aside from Elmer Söderblom, who was later sent to the AHL.
This could change for the 2024-25 season, with several prospects pushing for roster spots.
A 24-year-old defenseman, Albert Johansson could join the NHL squad as he's no longer waiver-exempt.
Marco Kasper, drafted in 2022, showed promise in the AHL and could make the team in a versatile role.
Carter Mazur, a 2021 draft pick, impressed in college and the AHL, potentially earning a spot on a checking line.
Sebastian Cossa, despite a crowded crease, remains a goalie of the future.
Nate Danielson, the 2023 top pick, could secure a top-six role if he excels in camp.
