Booth lands tryout with Red Wings

David Booth is giving it another go.

The former NHL forward will attend Detroit Red Wings training camp on a professional tryout, general manger Ken Holland told Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.

Booth, 32, has spent the past two seasons in the KHL, where he netted a combined 24 points in 42 games. His last NHL season came in 2014-15, when he registered 13 points in 59 games with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Booth's NHL career also included stops with the Vancouver Canucks and Florida Panthers. He has recorded 231 points in 502 career games.

Holland noted the request to join the Red Wings' training camp was initiated by Booth, a Detroit native. It marks the third pro tryout for Booth, who attended Anaheim Ducks camp a year ago after linking up with the Panthers in 2015.
