Christoffer Ehn

It's about time for Ehn -- who was selected by the Red Wings in the fourth round of the 2014 draft -- to make the next big step in his development. The two-way maven spent the past four seasons polishing his game in his native Sweden, but with one of three years already exhausted from his entry-level NHL contract, Ehn could make a full transition to AHL Grand Rapids and possibly serve as an emergency call-up option for the Wings in 2018-19. Now 22 years old, the pivot is fresh off his fifth season with Frolunda HC, having deposited seven goals and 10 assists in 50 regular-season contests. On the downside, Ehn was held off the scoresheet entirely through six playoff games that same year. He should be viewed as a raw but promising prospect in Detroit's system.
