Every player on the Detroit Red Wings roster for the club's upcoming NHL Rookie Tournament has carved their own path to get to this destination. They've all written a unique hockey story along the way.
Here's a look at just a few of these tales.
Defenseman Justice Christensen signed an AHL contract with the Grand Rapids Griffins. He also played in last year's rookie series against the Dallas Stars, back then as a free agent.

In the summer of 2025, Christensen, then a defenseman with the WHL Prince Albert Raiders, captained Canada to the World U20 ball hockey gold medal. He talked about his other hockey passion in an interview on the Raiders' Facebook page.
