“A lot stood out this week,” Red Wings director of player development Shawn Horcoff said. “They practice all week, they don’t get in that many game situations and we ask them to go out there and play a game, which they haven’t done in a while; it makes it tough on the kids.

“The guys we drafted (last weekend) are the guys I don’t really know that well, so it was nice seeing them play in a game situation. I saw a lot of talent, a lot of skill, and we’re excited.”

Some notes and observations:

Seider’s mobility: Moritz Seider showed off the skating ability that was one of the reasons the Red Wings took the 6-4, 207-pound defenseman sixth overall this year.

“He can skate, he’s got some poise, he’s got good sense, he was really impressive today and throughout the week,” Horcoff said.
