The Detroit Red Wings have called an 11 a.m. press conference today to discuss the future of captain Nick Lidstrom.

Lidstrom has played 20 seasons in Detroit and won four Stanley Cups (1997, 1998, 2002, 2008), earning Conn Smythe honors in 2002.

Lidstrom is a seven-time Norris Trohpy winner and has appeared in 12 All-Star Games. He also won an Olympic gold medal with Team Sweden in 2006.

Lidstrom, a third-round selection by the Red Wings in 1989, said at season's end that he would make a decision about his playing career before the free-agency period begins on July 1.

The press conference will be aired live on FOX Sports Detroit and streamed on FOXSportsDetroit.com.
