From the Freep: Alfreddson wants to return to the Detroit Red Wings but…
"The Wings were tremendously pleased with what Alfredsson delivered last season, when he came to Detroit after 17 seasons with the Ottawa Senators. Alfredsson produced 18 goals and 31 assists in 68 games, and provided leadership made all the more invaluable during a year that saw each of Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk miss half a season."

"Osgood’s name won’t be announced when the 2014 Hall of Fame class is revealed on Monday. He’s not a first-ballot guy; hell, he might not be a second or third either. He’s a player whose candidacy depends very much on the peers he’s matched up against and the criteria that the illustrious panel of voters decides to apply."
From MLive: Detroit Red Wings Draft Needs
"Barring a trade to move up or down in the draft – they dropped two spots last year and got Anthony Mantha, the only 50-goal scorer available, at No. 20 – the Red Wings will pick 15th overall."
