Henrik Zetterberg expected back for another season in Detroit

Red Wings captain Henrik Zetterberg says he will play at least one more year in Detroit.   According to the "Detroit Free Press", the 37-year-old is in training and looking forward to a better season.

Zetterberg signed a 12-year contract with the Wings in 2009 and still has three years left on the deal.  

He had surgery on a herniated disc in 2014 and in April said he would take some time to evaluate if his back would allow him to continue to play.  

Zetterberg ended the 2017-18 season with 960 points and he would have a chance to reach the 1000 mark if he returns.
