Red Wings ink veteran goalie Bernier to 3-year contract

Jonathan Bernier is off to his fifth NHL city and fourth in as many years.

Bernier, considered one of the top free-agent goalies, signed a three-year deal with the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday. The team did not disclose money details but Craig Custance of The Athletic reports that Bernier will earn $3 million per season.

Since being drafted by the Los Angeles Kings in 2006, Bernier has suited up for the Kings, Toronto Maple Leafs, Anaheim Ducks, and, last season, the Colorado Avalanche.

The 29-year-old has a career save percentage of .914 through 288 NHL games.
