Breaking: Red Wings on verge of signing player to 7 year deal.

It appears that the Detroit Red Wings are on the verge of completing a major deal, one that will likely leave their fan base very happy.

According to a report from TSN hockey insider Bob McKenzie the Red Wings and forward Justin Abdelkdaer are very close to terms on a 7 year deal worth over 4$ million dollars a year.

Right now we don't have any further details on the specifics of the contract or when an announcement can be expected out of Detroit, but McKenzie is very rarely wrong on these issues, so we except it to be relatively soon.
