It's almost that time of year again, time for the annual Detroit Red Wings’ development camp in Traverse City. This year’s tournament will feature at least 45 of Detroit’s prospects, including all 11 of the Wings’ 2017 draft picks.
The annual development camp is always an exciting time for the Detroit Red Wings organization.
It doesn't matter if the Red Wings are coming off a Stanley Cup championship - something they've done four times since 1997 - or if they've missed the playoffs for the first time in 26 seasons as is the case this year.
