Detroit — The Red Wings went local with their third-round pick.
They selected forward Carter Mazur, a Jackson native who came up the ranks in the Little Caesars program, with the 70th pick overall, on Saturday.
Mazur (6-foot, 168 pounds) had 20 goals and 24 assists in 47 games with Tri-City in the USHL.
Like second-round pick Shai Buium, Mazur will be attending the University of Denver this fall.
The Wings moved up and traded with Vegas to select Buium, who is a California native.
As a youngster growing up in San Diego, Buium would follow the Red Wings and attend games in Anaheim or Los Angeles when the Wings were in town.
