Is Steve Yzerman is coming home? It looks like it.
Yzerman, who served two decades as the Red Wings captain while leading them to three Stanley Cups, will be part of a news conference with Ilitch Holdings CEO Christopher Ilitch and general manager Ken Holland at 3 p.m. Friday, the team announced Friday morning.
Yzerman, 53, has spent the last nine seasons in Tampa Bay, including eight as the Lightning’s general manager. He announced his resignation from the post before the start of last season, but remained in the organization in an advisory role to team owner Jeffrey Vinik.
