The Detroit Red Wings added back-to-back centers midway through the 2026 NHL Draft.
Beckham Edwards (No. 143) was at the event on Saturday, June 27, at KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York. The 6 foot 1, 190-pound Edwards is another center out of the Ontario Hockey League, but his experience lies a bit closer to Detroit: He also played in the Little Caesars program at Little Caesars Arena.
"It's a dream come true," Edwards said. "We dreamed about this moment as a kid. Playing a year of hockey in Michigan in Little Caesars Arena kind of brings it full circle for me.
"I talked with them at the combine and throughout the year, and now that it's official, it's awesome."
