Detroit — Training camp is a month away for the Red Wings and coach Jeff Blashill has begun preparations.
Including one that Blashill isn’t looking forward to — comprising a lineup that is without captain Henrik Zetterberg.
General manager Ken Holland told reporters last week there was an “unknown” to Zetterberg’s future because of persistent back issues that have forced Zetterberg to not train this summer.
Blashill said Wednesday, because of Zetterberg’s health, there’s “doubt” as to whether Zetterbrerg will be ready to play this season.
“He’s had a hard summer and I don’t think his back is reacting great,” Blashill said.
