DETROIT -- Detroit signed forward Johan Franzen to an 11-year, $43.5 million deal Saturday, keeping him off the free agent market and retaining talent that helped the Red Wings win the Stanley Cup.

Franzen will be paid between $5.5 million and $5 million for the first seven seasons of the contract, a source told ESPN.com. The team said the deal for Franzen, known as Mule, is the second-longest in team history.

DETROIT -- The Detroit Red Wings have agreed to a contract extension with forward Henrik Zetterberg worth slightly more than $72 million over 12 years.

The team plans to hold a news conference Wednesday afternoon in Detroit, according to a report by The Booth Newspapers.

Zetterberg, a 28-year-old native of Sweden, is in his sixth NHL season, all with Detroit. He has 43 points in 45 games this season.

Messages seeking comment from the team and Zetterberg's agent were not returned.

DETROIT (AP) -Two people in the NHL tell The Associated Press that Marian Hossa has agreed to sign with the Detroit Red Wings.

The people spoke Wednesday on the condition of anonymity because the deal has not been announced. One says Hossa's one-year contract will be worth $7.45 million.

The high-scoring winger was one of the key players who helped the Pittsburgh Penguins advance to the Stanley Cup finals, which they lost to Detroit.

My vote for the Conn Smythe award... but ohh well :)

Congrats!

What a game, and what a series!

Now the fun begins. Congrats Wings.
