A quick note this afternoon. Casey at Winging it in Motown hooked up another interview for me, this time with Willie Coetzee of the WHL's Red Deer Rebels. Coetzee didn't get drafted this past draft, but he signed with Detroit in the summer after they invited him to their Traverse City camp and he impressed. With tryouts, if they're still draft eligible, you can invite them to your prospect camp and it gives you a two week window to sign them during the season. Coetzee impressed enough to where Detroit drafted him.
As usual, they have an eye for talent. Coetzee is on pace to easily double his offensive totals from last season. He's been a mainstay among the WHL's top ten scorers all season.
Check out my interview with him here. And if you missed it, check out the one I did with Nick Jensen that I did last week.
