Can 2021 first-round pick, Sebastian Cossa, make the next jump in development for the Detroit Red Wings and become their franchise goalie? It feels like he might have turned a corner in his development.
When Detroit Red Wings General Manager (GM) Steve Yzerman traded up with the Dallas Stars in the 2021 draft, there was no secret that he was interested and looking for a goalie. Many believed that goalie could be Jesper Wallstedt, but he opted to take the highly touted Sebastian Cossa instead.
In Cossa’s draft year, he went 33-9-3 in the WHL with the Edmonton Oil Kings and was considered a future starter/franchise goalie in the NHL.
