A Two-Year Deal For Givani Smith

DETROIT -- The Detroit Red Wings today re-signed right wing Givani Smith to a two-year contract.

Smith, 23, split his third professional campaign between Detroit and the American Hockey League's Grand Rapids Griffins in 2020-21. In 16 games with the Red Wings, Smith notched four points (1-3-4) and 21 penalty minutes, while registering 28 hits in 10:35 average time on ice. The 6-foot-2, 210-pound winger notched his first NHL multi-point game with a goal and an assist on Feb. 7 at Florida, while completing the "Gordie Howe Hat Trick" by recording a fighting major in the game as well.
