The Detroit Red Wings got another key re-signing on the books, inking defenseman Filip Hronek to a three-year deal Friday afternoon. The multi-year deal continues a trend for general manager Steve Yzerman who has kept players on term that aren’t in the mold of the previous contracts that saw players handed deals with longer durations. The key exception is Anthony Mantha, who signed a four-year deal, and then was shipped to Washington in April.
