DETROIT (AP) — Red Wings general manager Ken Holland says Chris Chelios is going to work for the team.

Holland said Saturday night that Chelios’ new job doesn’t have a title yet and his specific responsibilities haven’t been determined.

The 48-year-old Chelios played for the Atlanta Thrashers last season. The defenseman helped Detroit and Montreal win the Stanley Cup, won the Norris Trophy three times as the NHL’s top defenseman, and was an 11-time All-Star.
