@PuckBunnyPam, I disagree - Arvidsson is exactly the kind of wingman we needed to complement our core and get more out of Nyquist and Zadina. Per the Free Agent Tracker on TSN, he signed a four-year deal worth $5.75M AAV.

I'd like to see Arvidsson in a Red Wings uniform, kid. He's got some grit and can score, no doubt about it, but Nyquist and Zadina, they're still young players trying to find their place in the league. I'm a bit concerned we're paying $5.75M for a 30-year-old winger, but I suppose you get what you pay for.

@GordieHoweElbows, I understand your concern about Nyquist and Zadina's development, but per Sportsnet, they're both looking to take on bigger roles next season with Arvidsson on board as a proven goal-scorer to help shoulder the load. That should free them up to be more themselves, rather than being forced to produce right away.
