    3. Detroit Red Wings

    Top three prospects: Simon Edvinsson, Marco Kasper, Sebastian Cossa

    Top pick in 2023: Nate Danielson

    While it hasn’t translated to wins, and Detroit still has too many veterans on their roster to allow their youngsters to ascend to the NHL, their prospect pool depth is brimming. With Lucas Raymond, Joe Veleno, Jonatan Berggren, and Moritz Seider in the NHL, the next wave of players including Simon Edvinsson, Marco Kasper, Sebastian Cossa, Carter Mazur, Nate Danielson, William Wallinder, Trey Augustine and Axel Sandin-Pellikka are pushing forward.

    Detroit has depth at all three positions, and at this point in their rebuild, have enough prospects at both the junior and professional ranks that a few could be used as trade bait. They’re in excellent standing for the future, and look like they could have a few sleeper prospects in Amadeus Lombardi and Alexandre Doucet who put up huge numbers in junior this year.

    And they are loaded with draft picks in future drafts.

    I really believe that we are set up to be at the top of the league for a long time. I think we’re lacking a true superstar but the depth at the top of our farm is insane

  4. Its actually hilarious that basically everyone fails to mention Johansson

    I legit think we have the deepest prospect pool in NHL history

    I’d personally move Buffalo to three and slide Columbus and Detroit up. Columbus has the best prospect of the three teams and Detroit has more depth. I like Buffalo’s prospect pool but don’t see how it’s the best

    Man imagine if cossa pans out too..

  8. jfstompers

    Lots of depth not enough high end prospects. I could stand trading a few more for some quality now pieces.

    This is what casuals dont understand when thye call us mid. We’re mid for now sure but outside of a handful of teams nobody has more talent coming than us

    ​

    Buffalo is a way bigger concern long term than Ottawa
