DETROIT RED WINGS PROSPECT POOL | Top 10 NHL Prospects Ranking 

I didn't include Soderblom because he played over 10 NHL games (he played 21 so very close) and the reason is I tried to list players who player under 10 games (similar to Entry Level Contract rule). Otherwise Soderblom definitely would have been on the list. He has some slick hands for a big forward! Thanks!

Cross Hanas? @@nhldraftpros

I think Lombardi has a higher floor and Buchelnikov has a higher ceiling so it just depends on your preference.

I’d put Trey Augustine way up there too. I think he’s going to end up turning out better than Cossa honestly

Definitely impressive considered where they fell each draft!

I feel like most lists don't include him because they don't consider him a prospect anymore, but he still technically is

Yeah Soderblom definitely would have made the list but I only included players who played under 10 NHL games (similar to Entry Level Contract rule) and Soderblom played 21...close. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@nhldraftpros ah, that makes sense. (I thinking more rookie eligible.) Thanks again.

@@nhldraftpros Redwings pipeline is DEEP asf. We got robbed in the 2020 draft, but we drafted very well that year, our 2021 class is historically good. Cossa Mazur Edvinsson. These past 2 years we have just been sitting in the lower part of the middle of the pack but I think we still will miss the playoffs this year one last time but finish upper middle of the pack. But dude in a couple years along with the early part of the Yzerplan of Seider Raymond Fabbri and Rass....we will have our young studs of: Carter Mazur, William Wallinder, Albert Johansen, Ryan Lombardi, Axel Pelikka, Elmer Soderblom, Marco Casper, Simon Edvinsson, Dmitri Buchelnikov, and Sebastian Cossa. Like Yzerman has built a team out of hidden gems and starting in 2-3 years I predict we will be going on a 10 year playoff streak with atleast 1 cup title sometime around 2028 or 2029

I'm still baffled how Sandin Pellikka slipped to 13...what a steal!@@jacksharon1145

Yeah the last few spots were open for interpretation...but definitely some really nice defensive prospects in the system!

That and because he DOES have limited offensive upside

@@500stoney How? Are you a scout?

Yeah I was on the fence about Lombardi...definitely could make the list, but just a personal preference I guess. The last few picks are up in the air!

Thanks! They have some nice pieces...could have added a couple more to the list like Lombardi and Hanas...I didn't include players who played more than 10 NHL games, so Soderblom was close (played 21 games I think). Wings looking good for the future!

Yes! Hanas and Lombardi were on the bubble, but just went with personal preference and who I thought would translate better at the next level. But definitely a nice group to have in the ranks!

@@nhldraftpros yeah I know man that was not a knock on your rankings at all 😉

I like it! Thanks! And yes Lombardi was on the fence for cracking top 10...like that you have him there!

Mazur #1 y’all don’t even know

Soderblom could end up being a superstar in my book. When he learns how to bring it every night, look out!

Nice to know! How's Johansson doing this season so far?

Yes indeed! Just took a break to enjoy some summer, but now I'm back to dropping videos. Columbus coming out tomorrow....then Anaheim next week. Thanks!

@@nhldraftpros understandable man, hope it was enjoyable! Keep up the great content brother 💪

The 2024 NHL Draft is stacked with D so it will be interesting to see what transpires come draft day and where the Wings will land also. But it seems that Yzerman typically goes with best available (or who him and staff think that is) when it comes to prior drafts. Building something nice in Hockeytown!

Yeah I would have thought more offensive minded forwards too...considering they have a boat load of D in the pipeline. But Im sure they have a plan and we will just have to wait and see how it transpires!

Hope he turns into a makar

@@jbspring I get yah ...how about, "best version of himself" ...I see 👀 some Doug Harvey, and Bobby Orr, in him ...be patient with Pelican 🐧 D-man take longer to evolve 🦧😉

I'm a big fan of Sandin Pellikka but I can see why the Habs took Reinbacher...he's so good defensively.

I didn't have Soderblom on list cause I only had prospects who played under 10 NHL games, but he would definitely be on the list otherwise!

Agreed! New team updates will be coming in July.

I only included players who played under 10 games (similar to Entry Level Contract rule) so Soderblom wasn't eligible for this list, but otherwise he'd be up there for sure!

I only included players who played under 10 NHL games (so Soderblom is out) and Lombardi and Hanas were in the 8-12 vicinity, just a personal preference on my end. Thanks!

LOL!!! Nope...number 1 for the big man!
