Defenseman Danny DeKeyser is staying home, agreeing to a deal with the Detroit Red Wings.

The 26-year-old had an arbitration hearing set for Thursday, but Red Wings general manager Ken Holland told the Detroit Free Press on Tuesday that DeKeyser has agreed to a six-year, $30 million contract. Agent Don Meehan confirmed the terms of the contract, including modified no-trade protection beginning in the 2017-18 season.

The Michigan native had eight goals, 12 assists and was a plus-2 for the Red Wings last season, his fourth with the team. DeKeyser's best season came the year before when he had 31 points and was a plus-11.

Holland had said Monday that he felt the sides could get a deal done ahead of arbitration.

"Danny is Detroit born, he's happy with his role, happy to be a Red Wings. We are happy with his play," he said, according to the Free Press.
