Detroit Red Wings News
The Red Wings have signed Alex DeBrincat to a four-year extension worth $31.5 million ($7.875M AAV).
DeBrincat was reportedly seeking a long-term deal, which Red Wings GM Steve Yzerman was not keen on giving out. The term was likely what held up the trade, which had long been rumoured to be happening. DeBrincat is now signed through the 2027 NHL season and is one of four forwards in Detroit with at least four years on their deals, joining Dylan Larkin, Andrew Copp and J.T. Compher.
The Red Wings acquired Alex DeBrincat from the Senators for a conditional 2024 1st round pick, a 2024 4th round pick, Dominik Kubalik and Donovan Sebrango.
DeBrincat was an RFA that had made it known that he was not interested in re-signing with the Senators. After one season, where he scored 27 goals with 39 assists (66 points) in 82 games, DeBrincat was traded to his hometown team, where he immediately becomes their best goal-scorer and a crucial part of the Red Wings' rebuild. DeBrincat is a two-time 40-goal scorer and has averaged 38 goals and 38 assists (76 points) per 82-games over the last three seasons.
4-year, $31,500,000 contract with the Detroit Red Wings. 16 team No Trade List, Contract was signed by Jeff Jackson, now represented by Dave Gagner at Wasserman. Expires 2027 (UFA).

Philadelphia has re-signed Ronnie Attard to a two-year, $1.7 million contract extension ($850,000 AAV).
Attard had 12 goals, 20 assists, 41 PIMs and a +10 plus/minus with Lehigh Valley (AHL) in 2022-23 and has signed a two-year, $1.7 million contract extension ($850,000 AAV) with Philadelphia. The 24-year-old defenseman appeared in two games for the Flyers last season but failed to pick up a point in his brief showing.
Arizona has signed John Leonard to a one-year, two-way contract ($775,000 AAV).
Leonard spent most of the 2023 season in the AHL, finishing second on the Milwaukee Admirals in points (44), third in goals (17) and fourth in assists (27). With Arizona, he should battle for a roster spot in training camp, but seems destined to start the year in the AHL due to his two-way contract.
Toronto has signed William Lagesson to a one-year, two-way contract ($775,000 AAV).
Lagesson had 10 goals, 22 assists, 46 PIMs and a +14 plus/minus through 65 games last season with the Chicago Wolves (AHL) and will join Toronto on a one-year, two-way contract worth $775,000. The 27-year-old defenseman failed to see any NHL playing time in 2022-23 but still brings 60 games of experience as well as seven career assists to the Maple Leafs.

The Red Wings have signed J.T. Compher to a five-year contract worth $25.5 million ($5.1M AAV).
Compher had 17 goals, 35 assists, 154 SOG, 33 PIMs and a +8 plus/minus through 82 games with Colorado in 2022-23 and has signed a five-year contract worth $25.5 million ($5.1M AAV) with Detroit. The 28-year-old left-winger joins the Red Wings after seven successful seasons in Colorado that included a Stanley Cup win, 88 goals and 194 points in 423 career NHL games.
The Kings signed Andreas Englund to a two-year contract worth $2.0 million ($1.0M AAV).
Englund had four assists, 31 SOG, 35 PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through 47 games played with Colorado and Chicago in 2022-23 and has signed a two-year contract worth $2.0 million ($1.0M AAV). The 27-year-old defender will be joining his fourth NHL team and has yet to pick up a goal across 80 career NHL games despite having seven assists, 59 PIMs and 46 SOG across that span.
The Senators signed Jacob Bernard-Docker to a two-year contract extension worth $1.61 million ($805K AAV).
Bernard-Docker split his time between the NHL and AHL during the 2023 season. While in Ottawa, the 23-year-old defenseman had one assist, 22 shots and 23 hits in 19 games. He figures to be in the mix for regular playing time during the 2023-24 season.
Simon Edvinsson had surgery on his left shoulder and is expected to be out for 4 to 6 months.
Edvinsson had two goals, 40 SOG, 12 PIMs and a -7 plus/minus across nine games in his first showing with the Detroit Red Wings this season but will now be forced to miss 4-6 months as he recovers from left shoulder surgery. The 20-year-old was Detroit's 2021 first-round pick (6th overall) and will hope to have an update as we return for the 2023-24 season.
