The Detroit Red Wings kept one of their biggest trade chips, the 13th pick in the draft, and didn’t make a move prior to Friday’s first round. The fit just wasn’t there, general manager Steve Yzerman said.

The Wings were contacted by teams beneath them in the first round, attempting to see if they'd move down the draft order while getting more picks. But with forward Carter Bear still available when the Wings picked 13th overall, the Wings weren't interested.

The Detroit Red Wings hold the 13th overall selection going into the 2025 NHL Draft. Here are live updates from the busy day.
