Vegas Golden Knights fans have faced the reality that not every drafted prospect will remain with their team, a lesson echoed by Detroit Red Wings supporters. The Red Wings have a plethora of prospects, some of whom succeed while others are traded or fade away.

Alec Regula, a former Red Wings prospect, was recently claimed off waivers by the Edmonton Oilers. Drafted 67th overall in 2018, Regula has had a tumultuous journey, including injuries and trades, but now has a chance for a fresh start in Edmonton.
