Report: Sheahan, Red Wings agree to 2-year deal

Riley Sheahan has reportedly agreed to a two-year contract extension with the Detroit Red Wings, according to MLive's Ansar Khan.

The contract will reportedly pay the restricted free agent $2.075 million per season.

Sheahan, 24, scored a career-best 14 goals last season, but did take a step back in overall production, netting a modest 25 points in 81 games.

The former first-round draft pick hasn't proven he can be a consistent top-six contributor for Detroit, and seems at risk of being overrun by the organization's prospects. But the Wings apparently think enough of Sheahan's work down the middle and in a bottom-six role to have him continue working toward becoming a consistent offensive contributor.
