The forward had 11 goals and 24 points last season, his 15th in the NHL.

Tomas Holmstrom has not decided whether he will return for the 2012-13 season. Holmstrom is 39 and even if he agrees to return, it is no sure thing that the Red Wings will re-sign him. He thinks it will take a couple of more weeks at most to decide his future."Some days I feel like yes (I'll return), and some days no, and some days it's just aches and pain," Holmstrom said. While he continues to mull over his future, Holmstrom continues to work out.

Detroit GM Ken Holland expects Tomas Holmstrom to decide on whether or not he will return to the Red Wings next month. The 37-year-old wants to play three or four more seasons but isn't sure his body can hold up that long. The two sides should get together in June to discuss his future. Stay tuned.
