Bottom Line for the Detroit Red Wings
The Detroit Red Wings are about to kick off their off-season, starting with the NHL Draft on Wednesday and Thursday and following it up with Free Agency which will begin Saturday. The Red Wings are looking to return to the playoffs for the first time since the 2015-16 season. The Red Wings GM Steve Yzerman doesn't have to enter this season worrying about resigning his players as he has already locked up Captain Dylan Larkin for the future, and he is now looking to add players that could be a part of the Red Wings “core” for years to come that will help them make that leap and return to the playoffs.
