The extension worth a total of $6M

The Detroit have signed defenseman Olli Maatta to a two-year extension worth a total of $6M, the NHL team announced Thursday morning.

The deal will keep the 28-year-old Finnish defenseman in Detroit through the 2024-25 season.

Maatta was scheduled to hit unrestricted free agency this summer after signing a one-year, $2.25M contract with Detroit last July.

His play this season has still left something to be desired but has been good enough to earn himself a more extended stay.

Maatta has 17 points in 49 games, playing just over 18 minutes a night.
