Red Wings Secure Lucas Raymond with 8-Year, $64.6M Deal

The 22-year-old forward, key to Detroit's rebuild, signs just days before training camp.

Lucas Raymond's new contract with the Detroit Red Wings averages $8.075 million annually until 2032.
Raymond led the Red Wings with 72 points last season, achieving career highs in goals, assists, and several defensive metrics.
The 22-year-old Swede was the fourth overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft and has amassed 174 points in 238 career games.
Detroit aims to end an eight-year playoff drought, with Raymond and defenseman Moritz Seider as pivotal young talents.
General Manager Steve Yzerman is hopeful to finalize a contract with Seider, another cornerstone of the team's future.
