Ferris State hockey players Owen Mehlenbacher and Luke Coughlin were invited to NHL development camps
July 1, 2026
BIG SPEED, Michigan –
Incoming Ferris State University hockey student-athletes Owen Mehlenbacher and Luke Coughlin have earned invitations to the National Hockey League Development Camp.
Mehlenbacher, a forward, received an invite from the Detroit Red Wings, while defenseman Coughlin was invited by the Florida Panthers.
An NHL development camp is an annual summer orientation for prospects – including collegiate athletes – to experience a professional training environment.
For NCAA hockey players, this invitation means an NHL team formally evaluates their potential, introduces them to professional fitness and nutrition standards and assesses their readiness for a future professional hockey career.
Under NCAA rules, collegiate players can attend these camps without losing their amateur status, provided the NHL team pays for their meals and lodging but does not cover their travel expenses to the event.
The Red Wings’ camp runs from June 29 to July 2 and will take place at the BELFOR Training Center at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit.
Mehlenbacher is one of 37 invitees and was a seventh-round selection by the Red Wings in the 2022 NHL Draft.

Mehlenbacher, a native of Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada, played collegiately at the University of Massachusetts this past year, scoring nine points on three goals and six assists in 32 games.
The talented forward was an Academic All-Big Ten pick in 2024-25 at Wisconsin, where he played two seasons and appeared in 51 games with 10 points, including five goals. He played for the Muskegon Lumberjacks of the USHL and the Fargo Force before his collegiate career.
The Panthers 2026 development camp opened Monday and runs through Thursday at Baptist Health IcePlex in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Coughlin is one of 24 prospects invited to the camp, including selections from each of the club’s six previous NHL drafts and other invitees. He was selected by the Panthers in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft in the sixth round.
A native of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada, Coughlin played in 10 games this past season for the University of Maine, where he recorded his first collegiate point against Lindenwood.
He finished the year with two assists, eight shots on goal and nine blocked shots. He previously played four years for Rimouski Oceanic in the QMJHL and served his final two years as the club’s alternate captain, scoring 83 points with 15 goals from the blueline in 188 games.
The Bulldogs will enter their 48th season of NCAA Division I hockey in 2026-27 and the second season under head coach Brett Riley.
