Detroit — The Red Wings added to their weekend haul of free-agent signings Sunday with another local touch.
Forward Vladislav Namestnikov signed a two-year contact worth $4 million ($2 million salary cap hit).
Namestnikov, 27, is the nephew of former Red Wing Slava Kozlov, is represented by local agent Dan Milstein, and lives in the Detroit area (also lived in the area as a youth).
Namestnikov (6-foot, 183 pounds) was drafted in the first round of the 2011 Entry Draft by current Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman in Tampa, when Yzerman managed the Lightning.
