The Detroit Red Wings sent Nick Jensen to the Capitals in the deal that landed Madison Bowey. Also, they threw in a 5th round pick in this summers’ draft. The Wings have a plethora of draft picks in the 2019 NHL Entry Level Draft; nine picks to be exact. As it stands, they still have the potential to add to that pool of picks before tomorrow’s 3 pm est trade deadline.
The Wings already have their own second round pick along with the New York Islanders second-round choice in 2019. That is primarily the reason Ken Holland decided to settle on a “future’s” pick in this trade.
