Detroit Red Wings' Filip Hronek now the fifth prospect loaned out to European team

Special to Detroit Free Press

Add Filip Hronek to the list of young Detroit Red Wings who will tune up for the next NHL season in Europe.

The Wings have loaned one of their top defensemen, Filip Hronek, to Mountfield HK in the Czech Republic.

That brings the total of Red Wings playing overseas this late summer and fall to five players. Filip Zadina, the Wings’ top pick in the 2018 draft, is also playing in the Czech Republic for HC Ocelari Trinec.
