Detroit — The weather outside doesn’t feel like it, but it’s time for hockey camp again.
It’s not anything regarding the current Red Wings. But future Red Wings, or at least the organization hopes so.
The Red Wings host their annual development camp Friday through Tuesday at the Centre ICE Arena in Traverse City.
A total of 45 players — 21 forwards, 18 defensemen and six goaltenders — mainly recent draft picks, will participate in the camp, which is highlighted Sunday by an intrasquad scrimmage.
General manager Ken Holland views this camp as the “first step” for these prospects to understand what it takes to get to the NHL.
