Breaking: Fan favorite Cleary returns with the Wings!

A familiar face is back with the Detroit Red Wings. 

Former forward Dan Cleary, who spent close to 10 years with the franchise, is returning to take on new responsibilities. Cleary has been named director of player development for Red Wings, as he joins Shawn Horcoff.

Great news for the Wings. Cleary spent 609 games with Detroit over nine seasons, and recorded a total of 205 goals and 275 points, amassing 299 minutes of penalty in the Wings' jersey.

Good to see him back on board!
