from the Detroit Red Wings,

The Detroit Red Wings today agreed to terms with left wings Adam Erne and Taro Hirose on one-year contract extensions.

Erne, 25, appeared in 56 games with the Red Wings in 2019-20 before a lower-body injury cut his season short, registering five points (2-3-5), 28 penalty minutes and 142 hits, which ranked second on the team and was the highest per-game average on the club (2.54). The 6-foot-1, 212-pound winger was acquired from Tampa Bay by Detroit on Aug. 14, 2019 in exchange for a fourth-round pick in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft and has totaled 170 NHL appearances between the Lightning and Red Wings, notching 32 points (15-17-32) and 90 penalty minutes.
