The Red Wings continued to dip into the free agent pool Sunday signing 26-year-old forward Christian Fischer to a one-year deal worth $1.25M.
Fischer became available this offseason after Arizona declined a qualifying offer to him after a season that resulted in 13 goals and 26 points in 80 games. In total, Fischer would finish his tenure in the desert tallying 56 goals and 111 points in 398 games since being drafted by the Coyotes 32nd overall in 2015.
After a busy first day for Steve Yzerman and the Red Wings front office, Detroit still has roughly $9 million in cap space moving forward this summer.
