Red Wings:
64 G Jim Howard - The goalie of the future. After a brilliant showing in University of Maine, he has had two fine seasons in the AHL. As the Red Wings are not a team that will rush their prospects to the NHL level, they will make sure he's ready when his time will come.
132 D Kyle Quincey - Big, solid defensive d-man who has proved his worth in the playoffs with steady play as an injury fill-in. Plays a safe, intelligent game and has physicality. In the future he'll likely be firmly ensconced as a mainstay on the second or third defensive pairing.
164 C Ryan Oulahen - A hard working, diligent defensive specialist. His second season in the AHL was average, until he really stepped up his game in the latter half. Could make the NHL as a fourth liner.
170 R Andreas Sundin - Bust. A scoring who has gathered his points the most at the tier-2 levels in both Sweden and in Finland.
194 D Stefan Blom - Bust. A big defenseman who didn't pan out. Has played on Swedish second and third tier levels.
226 L Tomas Kollar - Bust. A power forward type with size who has performed in the SEL with limited success. Unlikely to ever traverse over the ocean.
258 L Vladimir Kutny - Bust. Drafted out the QMJHL, another big forward who ultimately didn't succeed even in the Q. Plays currently in the Slovakian league.
289 C Mikael Johansson - Bust. A water bug type with small stature, he put up decent numbers last season in the SEL (7+9=16). Still, unlikely to ever amount to anything special.
