George Malik of Kukla’s Korner: Red Wings RFA forward Tomas Tatar spoke CAS.sk about his free agent status and filing for salary arbitration. (through Malik’s translating the article) His agent, Rich Winter has been working with Red Wings for awhile on a new deal, and it doesn’t sound like it’s going well.
“Detroit offered me a contract, and even with a few options–for a year, or four or five. We’re still talking about the length, and of course, the financial amount of the contract. However, we aren’t going anywhere, and there’s been time enough,” Tatar told CAS, who may be headed to an arbitration court.
