The Detroit Red Wings could have missed the boat with now Edmonton Oilers forward Jack Roslovic. Roslovic signed a one-year, $1.5 million contract this week after spending months attempting to secure a long-term deal.

According to a piece by Daily Faceoff on October 9, Roslovic was looking for a three to four-year deal around $3 million to $4 million AAV.
