DETROIT – Kyle Quincey is prepared to face another long two months.
“Same as two years ago,” said Quincey, sensing a strong ambivalence to his hockey future.
As it was in 2015, the veteran defenseman will become an unrestricted free agent on July 1. It’s not an ideal situation for the 30-year-old, but he understands that it’s part of the pro-sports landscape.
“A lot of people don’t know that side of the job,” Qunicey said. “Packing up a house and not knowing where you’re gonna be. You’ve got family that need to know where they’re gonna be, and when you have no answers for them it’s kind of the (dirty) part of the job I guess.
