Detroit Red Wings 1991 Training Camp Roster

1991 Training Camp Notes
The Wings have tentatively invited 83 players to camp. Their are 21 amateurs and 62 professionals. They are made up of 6 netminders, 28 defenseman and 39 forwards. Besides the parent club, players will be placed with one of the three minor league clubs with player agreements, the Adirondack Wings (AHL), Fort Wayne Komets(IHL), and the Toledo Storm (ECHL). Camp started on 9/6/91 at Flint IMI Sports Arena before moving to Joe Louis Arena in Detroit for the preseason a week later. On 9/9/91 Dave Barr and Randy McKay were awarded to the New Jersey Devils as compensation for the signing of restricted free agent Troy Crowder, reducing the roster by two. Six players were invited to camp on tryouts, most notably rugged defenseman Chris Lipuma who made the NHL a few years later in the Tampa Bay organization, but none had an impact in the wings organization. Rookie hopeful's who generated buzz in camp while battling for jobs included Sheldon Kennedy, Kory Kocur, Bill McDougall, Marc Potvin, Gary Shuchuk, Mike Sillinger, Martin Lapointe, Serge Anglehart, Stu Malgunas, Dennis Vial, and Bob Wilkie.
