Some interesting news out of Twitter today, as the Red Wings have already started their summer of being more aggressive with trades:

Sadowy was a Sharks' draft pick in 2014, going in the third round at #81 overall. It's not immediately clear whether the third round pick that goes to San Jose next year will be the Red Wings' own or the one that the Toronto Maple Leafs still owe them from when they signed Mike Babcock, but that extra pick is a good reason why Detroit was able to make this move.

The 6'1" 180-pound left-shooting 20-year old winger had not yet been inked to his entry level contract, but as ESPN's Corey Pronman points out, that's likely to happen soon:

Pronman also had this to say about Sadowy as a prospect in August 2015:

Dylan Sadowy trended up in a big way this season, notching 42 goals in his 18-year-old OHL season.
