After taking a good chunk of last season to decide whether or not to return to the Anaheim lineup, it looks like future Hall of Fame defenseman Scott Niedermayer may be back in time for training camp next season. Here's Adam Brady from the official Ducks Blog:

I'm not going to get into the other topic on the table in Ducks land, but I will say that the buzz around here is that we will be hearing word from Scott Niedermayer as early as tomorrow morning. And while it's well-documented that I don't have a good reputation with this sort of thing, you can book it: He's coming back.

You know what, I'm surprised. I thought for sure he'd step away. How much do you think he has left in the tank?

I love the wording in the article I read:
The Anaheim Ducks star defenceman will honour the final year of his contract after once again contemplating retirement.

Oh thank you thank you thank you Mister Niedermayer.
Blah.
I'm betting he doesn't have a lot left in the tank.

I know that sounds a little self indulgent, the whole honour the contract thing, but didn't you enjoy watching him lead the ducks over the sens last year. I loved all the post game interviews he gave just trying to be polite to ottawa.

I actually really like the guy and I think he's a phenomenal player - it's this sitting around and taking his time re whether he'll play or not that bugs me.
