Detroit Red Wings captain Henrik Zetterberg is preparing to play at least one more season.

Zetterberg left his return open-ended when the regular season ended in April, saying he’d need to evaluate whether his health, especially his back, could continue to hold up. It appears he’s confident it can.

“I'm in training and looking forward to a better season,” Zetterberg told the Free Press Wednesday.
