Nothing is done until it's done but the expectation is winger Bobby Ryan will sign a one year deal in Detroit when the paper work is completed.

One-year deal worth $1 million for Bobby Ryan and Red Wings, as per @CraigCustance.

DET giving him a “show me” deal here. I’ve said before, I think Bobby Ryan has some game left. He’ll get a good chance to show that with the Red Wings.

To get premium ice time, instead of 4th line minutes with a contender.

To build his value.

Yeah, I guess with only a 1 year deal he could be traded to a contender at the deadline.

Good point. I haven't had my morning tea yet.

Well, I hope Bobby does well.

He gets a chance to shione, put 25 goals, and then get traded to Edmonton for two second picks, before hitting free agency again at the end of the season.


It's a win for everyone! except Edmonton.

To play in the NHL? Chance to get moved to a contender at the deadline too if he plays well.

Detroit also signs Jon Merrill, 1 year x $925k

83rd on the big board
