Parenteau signed a professional tryout agreement with the Red Wings on Wednesday, Adam Vingan of The Tennessean reports.
Parenteau is a talented veteran who simply fell victim to a deep offensive corps in Nashville, which led to him becoming a free agent this summer. The 34-year-old winger still notched 13 goals and 15 assists in 67 games last season as a bottom-six player. It comes down to whether Detroit feels it needs another veteran alongside Henrik Zetterberg to lead the young Red Wings through what is expected to be another rebuilding year. If they sign Parenteau to a deal for the 2017-18 season, expect him to play on the second or third line with power-play contributions.
