Red Wings, Alfredsson taking their time

Daniel Alfredsson said after the playoffs ended he'd take a few weeks to decide on whether or not to return for the 2014-15 campaign.

Michigan Live indicates Alfredsson may be the only of the Red Wings UFAs who might be offered a deal.

“He needs time to determine if he’s got the passion and desire to play again, if his body will let him do the things he wants to do,” Holland said. “I told Alfie we’re not making a decision until the middle of June. There’s lots of time.”

Holland also noted, “I told Legwand, Quincey and Gustavsson we’re going to take time to have internal meetings. In late May or early June I’ll reach out to their agents to let them know if we have a contract offer."
