Three of the Detroit Red Wings' biggest hopes for their future will be part of next month's prospects tournament.
Recent first-round picks Nate Danielson (No. 9 overall, 2023), Marco Kasper (No. 8, 2022) and Sebastian Cossa (No. 15, 2021) are among those on the roster for the Sept. 14-17 event in Traverse City, which serves as a precursor to main training camp. The Wings will host the Columbus Blue Jackets, Dallas Stars and Toronto Maple Leafs for four straight days of round-robin action, with each team's prospects playing three games.
Kasper appeared in one game with the Wings this past spring; plans to for him to play more were waylaid because of a leg injury.
