Look for Niedermayer to officially retire in the very near future.

His brother Rob was married Saturday in Victoria, BC, in front of several current and past teammates, including two of the best guys I’ve ever covered, Ray Whitney and Len Barrie.

I’ve been told Scott Niedermayer delayed his announcement so Rob wouldn’t have to deal with questions leading up to his wedding.

Rob leaves for his honeymoon this week and an announcement should be forthcoming.

This is obviously a huge loss for the NHL. Scott is leaving at the top of his game. He’s arguably still the best defenseman in the league, but has also won everything there is to win - 4 Stanley Cups, a Norris Trophy, a Conn Smythe Trophy and Olympic gold medal.
 

What more does he have to accomplish?
