The Detroit Red Wings have reached an agreement to keep forward Michael Rasmussen around for the foreseeable future, the team announced Tuesday.

The Red Wings and Rasmussen, 24, agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $3.2 million per year, according to the team. The deal is set to kick in after the season once his three-year deal worth $1.46 million annually that he signed in 2021 expires.

The No. 9 overall pick in the 2017 draft who was recently moved onto a line with Dylan Larkin and Patrick Kane on the team's West Coast trip has been a consistent double-digit goal scorer for Detroit the last three seasons. In 55 appearances this season, Rasmussen has 23 points — 11 goals and 12 assists — with a plus-11 rating while averaging 15 minutes of ice time a game.

In each of his last three seasons, Rasmussen has scored at least 10 goals. In 2021-22, he appeared in 80 of 82 games, scoring 15 goals and racking up 12 assists and a plus-2 rating. Last year, Rasmussen set a career-high in assists (19) and points (29) in 56 appearances before missing the end of the season with a leg injury.

Rasmussen made his debut for the Red Wings at 19 years old in 2018-19, appearing in 62 games and racking up 18 points with eight goals and 10 assists. He moved between the Red Wings and Grand Rapids Griffins from 2018-2021, before becoming a mainstay on the NHL roster starting in the 2021-22 season.
