Could Detroit Draft Matias Vanhanen? | Griffins Can Close It Out Tonight!

The offseason may be here for the Detroit Red Wings, but there’s still plenty happening around the organization and its future. Today’s lead story focuses on Everett Silvertips forward Matias Vanhanen, a draft eligible prospect who is putting together a tremendous WHL playoff run alongside Red Wings prospect Carter Bear. Everett has stormed into the WHL Finals with a dominant 12-1 postseason record, and Vanhanen has been one of the driving forces behind it all. Currently projected around the 55th overall range in the upcoming NHL Draft, Vanhanen could realistically be available when Detroit makes their selection. The chemistry with Carter Bear is already there, and his offensive explosion in the playoffs is turning heads at exactly the right time. Also in today’s quick hits: 🏒 Max Plante and Justin Faulk have been named to the preliminary Team USA roster for the upcoming IIHF World Championship. 🏒 Former Red Wings prospect Theodor Niederbach has signed a one-year deal with the Washington Capitals organization. 🏒 The Grand Rapids Griffins have an opportunity to eliminate the Manitoba Moose tonight in Game 4 of their opening round Calder Cup series. Michael Brandsegg-Nygard and Anton Johansson have brought a level of physicality and intensity that Detroit desperately needs more of moving forward.
