Added to the bottom of MLive’s Ansar Khan’s story about the Wings’ signing of Valtteri Filppula:
The Red Wings were interested in Corey Perry on a one-year deal but he signed with Dallas. They kicked the tires on former Red Wing Gustav Nyquist but weren’t even in the ballpark with their offer of two years at $4.5 million per season. He signed a four-year deal with Columbus for $5.5 million per season.
