The Detroit Red Wings had quite a few reasons to draft Carter Bear, but his relentless nature was at the top of the list.

Any time the 18-year-old is on the ice, he's extremely engaged and looking to get involved in play. Whatever it takes—throwing a hit, winning a battle, driving through opponents to get to the net—you can bet he's willing to do it. That level of engagement is so valuable; it's the kind of thing that could make or break a game.

Carter Bear, praised as a “naturally instinctive, creative scorer,” joined the Detroit Red Wings emphasizing his relentless desire over offensive prowess, explaining his 13th overall draft pick.
