Dan Cleary: Calls it a career
Daniel Cleary announced his retirement Wednesday, TSN reports.Hailing from Newfoundland, Cleary enjoyed an illustrious NHL career with the bulk of his playing time spent in Detroit, winning the Stanley Cup with them in 2008. Cleary produced 165 goals and 222 assists in 938 career games, which also included time with the Blackhawks, Oilers, and Coyotes. The winger was adept in all three zones, and his relentless style of play fit perfectly with the blue-collar vibe of Motown. Despite signing a one-year deal with AHL Grand Rapids ahead of last season, he didn't end up reporting to the club, which seems rather unfortunate since they just claimed the 2017 Calder Cup.

Red Wings' Dan Cleary: Signs PTO with Red Wings
Daniel Cleary will join the Detroit Red Wings on a professional tryout agreement (PTO), Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.Cleary's numbers have steadily declined since a career-best 2010-11 campaign, as he's tallied 46, 33, 15, eight, and two points respectively in his last five seasons. Now at 37 years old and a year removed from professional hockey, it seems probable Cleary's role would merely be depth at forward if he were to get signed long term.

Wings' Daniel Cleary won't report to minors
Detroit Red Wings forward Daniel Cleary will not report to the minors, MLive.com reports.Cleary refused an assignment to AHL Grand Rapids, so it appears the 36-year-old will instead opt for retirement. He signed a one-year deal in September but failed to earn a spot on the NHL roster out of camp. If Cleary does, indeed, opt for retirement, his entire salary for the season ($950,000) will not count against the cap.
