Ken Holland Happy Quotations

We're obviously very happy that we got Pavel back. He's a talented young player that had a very good year for us two years ago, and we're hoping for more of the same. With the new rules, I think skilled players like Pavel are really going to be helped.

Pavel and Hank are two young players who are very, very important to our franchise. In Hank's case, he's really coming into the prime of his career. I'm happy he made a long-term commitment; basically we bought ourselves one year of unrestricted free agency.

Mikael has been a key player throughout this season and earned the opportunity to stay in Detroit. I'm happy to have him signed and to be able to keep in him a Red Wings jersey for the next three seasons.

We're very happy to have Jason return to the Red Wings. He's a veteran defenseman who handles the puck very well and should excel with the new rule changes in the NHL.

We're very happy to have Chris return to the Red Wings. He's a veteran goaltender who knows what it takes to compete and win championships in a great hockey city like Detroit.

I'm really happy that we got a deal done because we always wanted Henrik to remain on our team. He's a young player who has shown he can produce in the NHL, and yet there's room for him to grow.
