Report: Update on the health of Johan Franzen.

It seemed for a long time that Johan Franzen's career was all but over, the symptoms he described at times led many to believe he would, and even that he should retire.

However in a recent interview with Mlive.com's Ansar Khan, Detroit Red Wings general manager Ken Holland made it clear that he expects Franzen to be at camp and ready to play.

"My expectations and hopes are he's going to be cleared when he takes his physical at camp," Holland said. "Ultimately, it's in the hands of Dr. Kutcher."

"Johan told me he's gotten better over the course of the summer," Holland said. "He's pushed himself hard to test it. So far, so good."

He added, "Obviously, there's a history of concussions. I can't read the future. I expect he'll take his physical and pass it and resume his career. As he skates and trains every day, if he has no setbacks -- I don't know why he would -- I'm expecting his body is going to tell him."

Franzen's return raises some very important moral questions about head injuries, and whether or not an organization should step in after repeated injuries.

Are the Red Wings making a mistake by letting him return?
