Compher Locks In Detroit's Fifth Expansion Signing

Detroit keeps filling out the expansion puzzle, and Jesse Compher is the latest piece to fall into place. A three-year deal gives the club some clarity, but it also shows how aggressively this roster is being built from the ground up. Teams do not hand out that kind of term unless they see a defined role and a reason to move fast. The Wings are clearly trying to establish their identity before the market gets any ideas.
