Lidstrom still mum on future
Monday, May 10, 2010 - 02:04 AM EST - 4 Months ago - NHL - Hockey - Player Update
When Nicklas Lidstrom took off his Detroit Red Wings uniform and unlaced his skates Saturday night, the defenseman didn't wonder whether he would wear the winged wheel again. "I swear, I didn't," he insisted. The 40-year-old Lidstrom deflected every question from reporters about his future after getting off the team plane Sunday afternoon, about 15 hours after his season ended. The San Jose Sharks eliminated Detroit on home ice in Game 5 of their second-round series. "I haven't thought about it yet," he said. "It's not on my mind right now. I don't have a timetable." But Lidstrom acknowledged knowing the Red Wings want an answer from him before free agency begins July 1. Detroit general manager Ken Holland hopes to meet with every player, including Lidstrom, within the next two weeks and wants to re-sign Lidstrom. "We want him back," Holland said. "I don't know what process he's got to go through." Detroit Red Wings - San Jose Sharks - Ken Holland - National Hockey League - Sports

Bieksa's second goal came on a power play in the second period, a one-timer from deep in the left circle that got by Niemi with Alexandre Burrows screening.

Gagne scores winner in return
Monday, May 10, 2010 - 01:56 AM EST - 4 Months ago - NHL - Hockey - Player Update
Simon Gagne put his foot down. He wanted to play in Game 4 -- even with an injured toe. Good call. Gagne made a timely return to the lineup, scoring in overtime to help the Philadelphia Flyers hold off elimination by beating the Boston Bruins 5-4 on Friday night in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. Gagne, the longest-tenured Flyer, played for the first time since he broke his right toe in Game 4 of Philadelphia's opening-round series against New Jersey. "It's a good ending," Gagne said. "I can't ask for more to be able to come back early a little bit in the series." Boston Bruins - Philadelphia Flyers - Eastern Conference - New Jersey - sport
