'There was no point in waiting': Pius Suter was sold quickly on Red Wings

Detroit — New Red Wings forward Pius Suter remembers playing occasionally with Tyler Bertuzzi and Robby Fabbri, his new teammates and former linemates in junior hockey in Guelph.

Suter's eyes kind of lit up thinking about it, actually.

"We played a few games together," Suter said during Thursday's media Zoom call, a day after signing with Detroit on the first day of NHL free-agency. "We had one really good game, the three of us. We had one really, really good game. We scored a few goals together."

If the trio can recapture that kind of magic once in a while, the Wings will be happy.
