It’s still so, so, so early in the development process, but doesn’t it feel like the Red Wings’ 2018 draft class could be a special one? At least three of the first four picks all have potential to be legit NHL players. I’m incredibly high on Zadina, Veleno and McIsaac. The jury is definitely still out on Berggren after basically a lost season last year because of back surgery, but the potential is there.
