LAS VEGAS - After a two-year break, Nicklas Lidstrom is the
NHL's top defenseman again.
The Detroit Red Wings star won the Norris Trophy on Wednesday
night for the seventh time in his 19-season NHL career. Lidstrom
tied Doug Harvey as a seven-time winner, one behind record-holder
Bobby Orr.
Lidstrom beat Boston's Zdeno Chara and Nashville's Shea Weber at
the NHL Awards ceremony in Las Vegas.
Lidstrom captured the award three straight times from 2001-03
and then added another hat trick from 2006-08. His second run was
stopped by Chara, who has been a finalist three of the past four
seasons.
Lidstrom was second in the league among defensemen with 62
points, including 16 goals. He was third among defensemen in
assists.
