Luke's father Mike said the family is "thrilled" he's coming back to the area, adding that Luke had a longer-term offer from another team, but chose to sign with Detroit.

"The opportunity is there for him to get a lot of playing time and he thinks that in that offence he's got a chance to do well and, they'll want to resign him," he said.
