The Detroit Red Wings and San Jose Sharks have integrated new draft selections into their respective development programs following the 2026 NHL entry draft.

底特律紅翼與聖荷西鯊魚隊在 2026 年 NHL 選秀後，已將新入選的球員納入各自的培訓計畫中。

Regarding the Detroit Red Wings, the organization has acquired Finnish forward Luka Arkko. Arkko, a sixth-round selection, has subsequently been selected 65th overall by the Erie Otters in the CHL import draft. This dual-selection mechanism facilitates the transition of international athletes into Canadian junior hockey. Arkko's statistical profile includes 33 points across the Finnish U18 and U20 leagues, with 25 points recorded specifically for the Lahti Pelicans' U20 squad. Dan Cleary, Director of Player Development, noted Arkko's physical dimensions and manual dexterity, suggesting that the player's relocation to the OHL will optimize institutional oversight of his progression.

關於底特律紅翼，球隊招募了芬蘭前鋒 Luka Arkko。Arkko 是第六輪選秀球員，隨後在 CHL 進口選秀中被 Erie Otters 以總第 65 位選中。這種雙重選拔機制有助於國際運動員過渡到加拿大青少年曲棍球。Arkko 的數據顯示，他在芬蘭 U18 與 U20 聯賽中合計獲得 33 分，其中 25 分是在代表 Lahti Pelicans U20 隊時取得的。球員發展總監 Dan Cleary 指出 Arkko 的身體條件與手部靈活性極佳，認為該球員轉至 OHL 將使球隊能更有效地監督其進展。

Concurrently, the San Jose Sharks have drafted Alexander Karmanov, a Moldovan national. Karmanov's physical specifications—listed at 7 feet 1 inch and 280 pounds—would render him the tallest player in the history of the league, contingent upon his eventual debut. His competitive history includes a tenure with the Brantford Titans of the GOJHL, where he recorded seven points and 68 penalty minutes over 15 contests. While Karmanov experienced greater difficulty during his tenure with North Bay in the OHL, there was a noted improvement in puck handling toward the conclusion of the season. Karmanov is currently committed to Penn State University for the 2027 academic year.

與此同時，聖荷西鯊魚隊選中了摩爾多國民 Alexander Karmanov。Karmanov 的身體素質——身高 7 呎 1 吋，體重 280 磅——若其最終能正式出賽，將使其成為聯賽歷史上最高的球員。他的比賽經歷包括在 GOJHL 的 Brantford Titans 效力，在 15 場比賽中記錄了 7 分與 68 分鐘罰時。雖然 Karmanov 在 OHL 的 North Bay 效力期間面臨較大困難，但在球季末期的控球能力有顯著提升。Karmanov 目前已承諾於 2027 學年進入賓州州立大學就讀。

Both organizations are currently utilizing development camps to assess these prospects as they navigate the transition to North American professional standards.

兩支球隊目前正利用發展營來評估這些潛力球員，觀察他們在適應北美職業標準過渡期的情況。
