One of the NHL's worst-kept secrets is that the Red Wings are in desperate need of a top-line left winger. And this has been a problem ever since Steve Yzerman took over as GM.
It's not entirely Yzerman's fault, mind you. He was given a roster that relied on the likes of Anthony Mantha and Andreas Athanasiou on your top line, and none of the first-round prospects he was given, other than Dylan Larkin, were even close to becoming a top-six player.
However, several potential players in the league could fill that role, who may be available on the trade block or in free agency.
