Sounds like the price tag for Vanek. Definitely an overpayment imo. However Gaborik should have been had for the price tag Columbus gave up.

Khan said the hold up for the Wings with Gaborik was the $7.5M cap hit next year.

I said this few hours ago...

Not sure of the truth of this but I have read in a couple of places that the news was delayed because DeKeyser asked permission to personally call the other teams who showed interest and let them know he was going with the Wings. Maybe not the prima donna move that some here were claiming (this is not directed at you Dom) and a very classy and respectable move instead.

Can Confirm that Western Michigan D man Dan DeKeyser has agreed to terms with the Detroit Red Wings.

Looks like unless there is a mistake Danny is going to be a Red Wing.

I wrote the Red Wings-Sharks wrap-up from 1-5. Finally got to sleep at 6:30. Woke up around 9. Have been enjoing the watch for Danny DeKeyser since then (and posting the Wings beat writers' stories about Filppula and Colaiacovo, NHL.com's Hedger's interviews with Holland and Bill Roose's chat with Michael Shanks ahead of Gordie Howe's 85th birthday celebration on Sunday), and have been watching Red Bird III's flight path on Flightaware for such a long time that I'm practically ready to make airplane noises.
