Former Detroit Red Wings star center Sergei Fedorov will retire as a player and move into management, according to a report in Sovetsky Sport.

Fedorov, 42, reportedly will play one more game for CSKA Moscow next season before officially retiring and focusing on his duties as the general manager of the Kontinental Hockey League club.

The highly skilled Fedorov defected from the Soviet Union in 1990 and helped the Red Wings win three Stanley Cup championships in 13 seasons in Detroit. He ranks fourth on the club's career list for goals (400) and fifth in points (954).

He is the last Red Wing to win the Hart Trophy as the NHL's most valuable player in 1993-94 and is a two-time winner of the Selke Trophy as the league top defensive forward.

Fedorov, however, had an acrimonious split with the Red Wings in 2003. He turned down a five-year, $50 million contract offer delivered personally by owner Mike Ilitch and signed a four-year, $32 million deal with Anaheim.

His career went south after he left Detroit. He ended up playing only 85 games in parts of two seasons with the Ducks before being dealt to Columbus and finishing his NHL career with Washington in 2008-09.

Fedorov often was booed when he returned to Joe Louis Arena.

He played in 1,248 NHL games, racking up 483 goals and 1,179 points.

Fedorov spent the past three seasons with KHL club Magnitogorsk Metallurg, picking up six goals and 22 points in 43 games in 2011-12.

He played four seasons for CSKA Moscow before joining the Red Wings.
