The Detroit Red Wings signed Carter Mazur to his entry-level contract and got him into the organization after his final season with the University of Denver concluded. Mazur, a former third-round pick of the Red Wings, had put together an impressive season at the NCAA level.
Before joining the Red Wings on his entry-level deal, Mazur played in 40 games, where he scored 22 goals and added 15 assists for 37 total points. This comes while playing in one of the toughest conferences in all of hockey, the NCHC, which is comparable to the SEC in football, in my opinion, at least.
