It appears as if Nicklas Lidstrom will not follow in the foot steps of fellow veteran, Marc Recchi.
Instead, the six time Norris Trophy Winner will return for the 2011-2012 season, in search for his fifth Stanley Cup Championship.
The Detroit Red Wing's captain has struck a deal with the Wings for one year, worth a reported 6.2 million dollars.
This move made by Ken Holland is huge, considering the Wings lost offensive defenseman, Brian Ralfaski to retirement.
Though Holland is expected to make a big splash in free-agency, to acquire another stud defenseman to replace Rafalski.
Finishing with 62 points last season, it's obvious the future hall of famer still has plenty to offer for a Detroit franchise looking to hoist it's second Stanley Cup in the National Hockey League post-lockout era.
