Daniel Alfredsson may play in Europe if the NHL season is canceled. "If I feel I'm going to play next season, maybe I should play somewhere," Alfredsson said. "Not that I have to, but it's probably a good idea." The Ottawa captain doesn't plan to play back home in Sweden's Elitserien league nor in Russia with the KHL. Alfredsson said he might head to "Italy or France or somewhere." He has been playing in a number of charity games and enjoyed skating in front of 11,000 fans at Operation Hat Trick last weekend to benefit victims of Hurricane Sandy, which may have helped revitalize his competitive spirit.
