Lombardi had a solid OHL rookie season, making a name for himself as a smart playmaker who can create scoring chances in close. He’d be a nice project for a team willing to be patient with him.— Sarah Lindenau (@Lindy72) July 8, 2022

Here’s confirmation from MLive’s Ansar Khan…

The Red Wings then signed Husso, 27, to a three-year contract worth $4.75 million a season. The native of Helsinki, Finland, was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on Wednesday.

Husso went 25-7-6, with a 2.56 goals-against average and .919 save percentage last season for the Blues. He wasn’t as effective in the playoffs, however, going 2-5 with a 3.67 GAA and .890 save percentage.
