Whoa. This one came out of nowhere, as Holland’s moves typically do. Nick Lidstrom has extended for two more years.
The Wings just announced they have signed defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom to a two-year extension that runs through 2009-10. Lidstrom was in the final year of his contract, earning $7.6 million.
“Nick has been the best defenseman in the world for several years”, Holland said in a statement. “He’s a great captain and role model who does everything right both on and off the ice. We’re proud to have him continue as a Red Wing for another two years.”
No indication as to whether the money is for more than the 7.6 he’s currently making…
