The Ducks will announce today that standout defenseman Scott Niedermayer will return to the team for the 2008-09 NHL season.
Niedermayer, 34, sat out the first 34 games last season while contemplating retirement in the wake of the Ducks winning the 2007 Stanley Cup championship. He returned for the final 48 games, finishing with eight goals, 25 points and a minus-2 mark.
