Pius Suter a signé un contrat de 2 ans d'une valeur de 6 500 000 $ avec les Red Wings de Detroit, le 28 juill. 2021. Le contrat comporte un cap hit de 3 250 000 $.
This guy might well be worth a first rounder before this contract is up.
I'm saying this because Detroit should probably still flip him unless he goes from good player to superstar. You pick up good players at the end of rebuilds, not at this stage.
More expensive than I was expecting but still love this signing for DET. We were badly in need of help down the middle and Suter should fill that role nicely.
You just brought in 9 million dollars in Tyler Johnson and Jake McCabe. Surely you could afford his QO knowing Suter would only get around 3-4mil instead of losing a promising young player for nothing. Savvy move by Yzerman, snapping up all these high upside youngsters (first Nedeljkovic now Suter)

Suter is a difficult player to evaluate because he played almost exclusively with Kane and Debrincat last year due to injuries. He's a talented player no doubt and a worthwhile risk for Detroit to take on. After a 30 goal season Kubalik signed for $3.7mm last year, Strome with a 50 point season to his name signed for $3mm, Suter should have come in under $3mm for the Hawks. With Reichel, Hagel, Nylander, Borgstrom and Gaudette, the Hawks have plenty of younger players with similar upside.
