Red Wings Nab Bernard-Docker on One-Year Deal

Jacob Bernard-Docker lands with the Detroit Red Wings on a one-year, $875,000 pact after bouncing from Ottawa to Buffalo last season. The 2018 first-rounder showed flashes with eight points and a plus-five rating across both clubs despite an ankle injury sidelining him earlier. Steve Yzerman eyes him as a potential depth piece on the blue line, where the Wings desperately need steady right-shot defenders to climb the standings.
