Red Wings Begin Training Camp in Traverse City

The Calgary Flames are engaged in a competitive goaltending battle at training camp following Jacob Markstrom's trade, with Dan Vladar, Dustin Wolf, and newcomer Devin Cooley vying for the starting position. Vladar, coming off hip surgery, aims to reclaim his role as he enters the final year of his contract, while Wolf, the AHL's goalie of the year, seeks to build on his late-season success. In Detroit, the Red Wings face uncertainties in their goaltending situation with Ville Husso recovering from injuries and veterans Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon in the mix for playing time. General Manager Steve Yzerman emphasizes the need for Husso to maintain health, while also keeping options open for a possible three-goalie setup. Both teams are looking to solidify their rosters ahead of the regular season, with the Flames focusing on a young core and the Red Wings addressing defensive weaknesses from last season. Training camps for both teams promise to reveal key decisions that will impact their playoff aspirations this year.
