Andrew Copp leaves Rangers for Detroit on a 4-6 year contract with a $5+m cap hit

The contract that bound the 28-year-old forward to the New York team expires and the hockey player becomes an unrestricted free agent.

“If nothing changes, Andrew Copp will sign with Detroit, everything points to that. A good player who will probably get 5+ million [per year] for a 4-6 year term. We’ll find out soon enough,” insider Darren Dreger shared.

The striker played for Winnipeg Jets and the New York Rangers last season. He totaled 53 (21+32) points in 72 NHL championship games and 14 (6+8) points in 20 Stanley Cup games.

The cap hit under contract was $3.64 million.
