## Resource

Jesse Kiiskinen, a gritty Finnish winger and former third-round pick, lit up the Red Wings’ prospect tournament with his first goal for Detroit — showcasing the physicality and hustle that’s making him a rising force. After three seasons in Finland’s top league, where he’s steadily improved his game — scoring 17 goals last year (nearly a point per game) — Kiiskinen is primed for North American ice, where his size and scrappy style could thrive. Though not yet NHL-ready, his potential shines brightest in the AHL, especially with Grand Rapids’ top line and roster shakeup opening the door for big contributions. With veteran departures and a chance to play alongside elite prospects, Kiiskinen could be the sleeper breakout player of the season.
