Center Brad Richards has looked at the Detroit Red Wings with respect from afar.
Richard signed a one-year free agent contract July 1 which guarantees $3 million in salary and could reach $4 million with performance bonuses.
"I've obviously admired this team for a long time and no different the last few years," Richards said Thursday at Joe Louis Arena after skating with his teammates for the first time.
Richards, 35, helped the Chicago Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup last season.
He had 12 goals and 37 points in 76 games and three goals and 14 points in 23 playoff games.
