NHL Prospect Tournament and Red Wings Training Camp Return
Steve Yzerman, the Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Detroit Red Wings, made an announcement regarding the team’s upcoming events. The Red Wings are set to return to Centre ICE Arena in Traverse City. They will host the NHL Prospect Tournament, the Training Camp, and the 2023 Training Camp Golf Classic at the Traverse City Country Club.
Traverse City is once again the venue for the 24th edition of the NHL Prospect Tournament, scheduled from September 14 to September 17. This year’s tournament will feature a four-team lineup. The Detroit Red Wings will welcome the Columbus Blue Jackets, Dallas Stars, and Toronto Maple Leafs for a round-robin competition. It will take place over the course of four days. Each team will play three games during this event.
NHL Prospect Tournament and Training Camp Returns
“Over the tournament’s history, 756 players have moved on to play in at least one NHL game, including 20 who played for the Red Wings in 2022-23,” said the news release. Some of these players include Jonatan Berggren, Tyler Bertuzzi, Ben Chiarot (Atlanta), Ville Husso (St. Louis), and Dylan Larkin. They all participated in this tournament earlier in their careers.
To begin their annual NHL Training Camp, the Red Wings will kick off with the 2023 Training Camp Golf Classic. This event is scheduled for September 20 and will take place at the Traverse City Country Club. The proceeds from this golf tournament will go to a non-profit organization that offers affordable skating programs in Northern Michigan.
The 2023-24 Red Wings are scheduled to begin their Training Camp on September 21 and will continue daily until September 25. Throughout the camp, the Red Wings’ players, prospects, and tryouts will be divided into teams. The teams will engage in practice sessions and scrimmage matches. One of the camp highlights will be the annual Red and White Game, set on September 24. Following this game, the team will stay in Traverse City for a practice session on September 25 before heading to Detroit to initiate their preseason schedule. The complete training camp schedule and a detailed camp roster will be unveiled later.

25 Detroit Red Wings Finds To Get You Ready For The Season
Gray Hoodie
We all have owned a classic Red Wings hoodie at some point. But if you’re like me, mine’s officially getting super worn out. This classic gray hoodie with the Red Wings logo is the perfect classic look for Red Wings fans.

Pro Travel and Training Quarter-Zip Jacket
I don’t know about you, but I get cold here in the Motor City a lot. And more often than not, I get pretty cold during the Red Wings games at LCA. This quarter-zip is the perfect investment for the winter, especially as the temperature continues to drop. Grab this in a size Small through 5XL.
Pro Training Camp Beanie
Another great find from the Training Camp collection is this beanie. The red Red Wings logo with the “Est. 1926” on the logo adds a nice touch to it. And now is a great time to make sure you have a warm beanie for winter.
Knit Pom Beanie
Or how about a more classic look? This knit beanie with the Pom on the top would be perfect for those walks into LCA to watch the Wings play.
Black Pro Travel and Training Sweatpants
And we can’t forget sweatpants. I love these! Even though these are men’s style sweatpants I could easily see myself wearing them. The black look from the Training Camp collection is awesome, and the multiple pockets and cuffed ankles are exactly what I need in a pair of sweatpants. You can grab these pants from sizes Small to 5XL.
Fade to Black Red Wings Logo Hoodie
Another awesome hoodie option! This hoodie features a fade to black Red Wings logo which has a different feel to it, don’t you think?
