Detroit drama aside, the league must be really wondering about Alfredsson. I mean, the last all-star game was basically an Alfie-lovefest. He has a rebound year and helped take a rebuilding team into the playoffs. And then, after that high note, he came back.
Last year he had a respectable year, an unexpected appearance in the second round of playoffs, and the league ackowledged his special career with the Marc Messier leadership award.
...and he comes back again.
The league has to be wondering what it will take this for this guy to quit!
I wouldn't expect any serious award, though, unless it is something like the Brian Burke award for neatest laces tying.
