Theo Rochette News: Pens ELC with Detroit

Published on June 14, 2026

Rochette signed a one-year, entry-level contract with the Red Wings on Sunday.

Rochette, a left-shot center, has played the last three seasons with HC Lausanne in the Swiss National League. The 24-year-old finished under a point per game in all three of those years, and he has never played in the NHL, so he'll likely spend the entirety of the 2026-27 campaign with AHL Grand Rapids. Rochette was never drafted by an NHL club.
