The Detroit Red Wings have made a key move in their offseason preparations, signing forward John Leonard to a one-year contract extension. The 26-year-old winger, who had a solid season with the Red Wings, will continue to contribute to the team's lineup in the upcoming campaign. Leonard's extension is a vote of confidence in his abilities, and it's likely that he'll be counted on to provide depth scoring and penalty kill expertise for the Red Wings. With the NHL's free agency period set to open soon, this move could be a precursor to further roster changes in Motown.
