The Detroit Red Wings signed forward Christian Fischer to a one-year contract worth $1.25 million, the team announced Sunday.
The Arizona Coyotes didn't tender a qualifying offer to Fischer on Friday, making him an unrestricted free agent. He scored 13 goals and 26 points in 80 games last season.
Fischer has spent his entire NHL career with the Coyotes. The 26-year-old totaled 56 goals and 111 points in 398 games with Arizona after being drafted by the team 32nd overall in 2015.
The Red Wings have just over $9 million of cap space after the signing, per CapFriendly.
