Pius Suter Heads to Detroit on New Two-Year Contract
The Chicago Blackhawks walked away from a qualifying offer to Pius Suter. So, the Detroit Red Wings quickly struck. They signed the forward to a two-year deal worth $3.25 million AAV on Wednesday. Suter spent good parts of the season centering forwards like Alex DeBrincat and Patrick Kane. He scored 14 goals and 27 points in 55 games. Suter also played over 16 minutes a night and saw a good deal of power-play time. That ability to score goals was not lost on Steve Yzerman. Suter scored five goals against Detroit in 2021. Suter can also play left-wing as well and should see top-six ice time as a Red Wing.

He had a rough month in April with only five points but should be able to bounce back if he lands in a top-six role. Malcolm Subban, who is 6-7-1 for the year, is the man between the pipes on Monday.

Pius Suter Scores First Career Goals With Hat Trick
Chicago Blackhawks forward Pius Suter was on a roll on Sunday against Detroit, scoring two first-period goals and completing a hat trick in the third. The 24-year-old rookie became the second player in franchise history to post his first three career goals in the same game. He also had a game-high five shots in the 6-2 win and finished with a plus-two rating. Suter had a 30-goal year playing in Switzerland last season, so he clearly has a good eye for goal. Skating alongside Patrick Kane isn't a bad situation either for him. Kane had two assists in the game, while Mattias Janmark and Connor Murphy recorded two points with one goal and one assist.
