All Mark Howe

from Adam Kimelman of NHL.com,

One of the Red Wings' top prospects is a defenseman, 2019 first-round pick Moritz Seider. He's been with Grand Rapids of the American Hockey League all season as Yzerman has preached patience. Have you seen him waver at all from that stance?

"No, I haven't seen that all. I've watched Seider play and I really like him as a prospect, as everybody does, and in my opinion, I didn't think he's [NHL] ready either. … The one thing I've seen over my years of scouting is when someone's brought to the NHL too soon and they're not ready, it tends to set people back.
