BREAKING NEWS: Detroit Red League Head Coach Todd McLellan Signs Contract Extension Through 2026

Detroit, MI — In a major announcement today, Detroit Red League head coach Todd McLellan confirmed that he has signed a contract extension that will keep him behind the bench through the end of the 2026 season.

The announcement was made earlier this morning at a press conference held at the team’s training facility. McLellan, who has been leading the Detroit Red League since taking over in 2022, expressed his gratitude and enthusiasm for continuing to guide the team’s development.

“I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished so far, but there’s still a lot of work ahead,” McLellan said. “Detroit is a city that breathes hockey, and I’m excited to continue building something special here with this group.”

Under McLellan’s leadership, the Detroit Red League has shown consistent improvement, emphasizing a fast-paced, disciplined style of play. The team reached the postseason in back-to-back years, and several young players have flourished under his guidance.

General Manager Mark Hughes praised McLellan’s leadership and commitment to the organization’s long-term vision.

“Todd has been instrumental in shaping the culture of this team,” Hughes said. “He’s a respected voice in the locker room and throughout the league. Extending his contract was an easy decision for us.”

The extension solidifies McLellan’s position as one of the longest-tenured coaches in the league. Fans have reacted positively to the news, with many expressing optimism about the team’s trajectory under his continued direction.

The Detroit Red League will return to action this weekend, facing off against their divisional rivals in what’s expected to be a high-energy matchup.
