Detroit Red Wings forward prospects Filip Zadina and Joe Veleno appear to be on the verge of getting in some valuable playing time, but not in North America within the team organization.
According to a report, the Red Wings are currently negotiating terms to loan both forwards to HC Oceláři Třinec of the Czech League:
Any playing time is good for players who aren’t involved in the NHL’s upcoming Stanley Cup Playoffs tournament! Here’s hoping that they both stay healthy and productive.

Musician Mike Posner is a Detroit native and has had his songs featured on Billboard Hot 100 singles list, including “Cooler Than Me” and “Please Don’t Go”. He also performed at Ford Field at halftime of the Detroit Lions Thanksgiving Day game in 2018.
And naturally, being a fan of Motor City sports, he’s a fan of the Red Wings. During a summer concert tour with Justin Bieber, the pair played Joe Louis Arena – and Posner got a special behind the scenes look.
“Before the show, they opened up the Red Wings’ locker room for me,” Posner said in a phone interview from L.A. “I immediately took a picture in front of Pasha’s locker because he’s my favorite player.
“I tweeted the picture to him and said, ‘Hey, man, look where I’m at.’ He tweeted back, ‘Finally, someone talented’s in that locker.’ ”
Datsyuk even made a cameo appearance in Posner’s video for “Top of the World”.
Posner also took in the Sochi Olympic Games in 2014, and spent time with Russian Red Wings legends Sergei Fedorov and Slava Fetisov – on a special invite from Datsyuk’s manager.
“It was incredible, man, it was really once in a lifetime,” Posner said. “I saw hockey, hockey, hockey.”
