Red Wings re-sign Teemu Pulkkinen to 1-year deal

The Detroit Red Wings have re-signed restricted free-agent forward Teemu Pulkkinen to a one-year contract, the team announced Wednesday.

The terms of the deal were not disclosed, but Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports the contract carries an AAV of $812,500.

Pulkkinen was limited to 36 games last season, and is expected to miss four-to-six months after undergoing shoulder surgery earlier in July.

The 24-year-old accumulated six goals and six assists last season.

With Pulkkinen signed, the Red Wings are down to two restricted free agents: defenseman Danny Dekeyser and goaltender Petr Mrazek.
