      DETROIT - Nicklas Lidstrom will return to play for the
Detroit Red Wings.
      The team announced the decision Monday before a scheduled
conference call with Lidstrom and general manager Ken Holland.
      The 41-year-old Swede, who will return for a 20th season, had
considered retiring.
      Lidstrom is a Norris Trophy finalist for the 11th time in 13
seasons. If he wins the award for being the NHL's top defenseman -
it would be his seventh - he will match Doug Harvey's total and
trail Bobby Orr's record by only one.
