As noted last night, Red Wings executive VP of hockey operations Nicklas Lidstrom spoke with Expressen’s Gunnar Nordstrom regarding Lucas Raymond recently. Overnight, Nordstrom updated his article with comments from Raymond’s European agent, Peter Werner:
“Lucas is very happy that this became clear [was signed] and he can focus on what he wants, to win hockey games for the Detroit Red Wings,” said Raymond’s agent, Peter Werner at CAA Sports in Stockholm.
About the content of the agreement and high salary, Werner says this:
“The terms are good and reasonable given how he has performed.”
When will Lucas go to the United States and Detroit?
“It could be either day. Everything has happened at high speed, and now it’s about getting him over before training camp in Detroit that starts at the end of the week.”
