Red Wings defenseman Niklas Kronwall is going to be in Detroit for a while.
Kronwall, who could have been an unrestricted free agent after the 2011-12 season, agreed to a seven-year contract extension Monday, according to an official Red Wings tweet.
Per team policy, terms were undisclosed, but the Detroit News reported the deal is worth $33.25 million, a $4.75 million per season average and cap hit.
Not saying it's the sole reason we lost.....scoring 1 goal per game isn't going to get shit done......but the calls and non-calls against us in overtime were awful. Bertuzzi gets called all the time for pulling the shit Koivu did when he knocked down Kronwall before touching the puck. It's called interference. Not only that, it was a headshot. Not to mention Setoguchi was in Howard's face as well. The ref just stood there looking clueless. 8-} Fucking ridiculous.
