Robert W. Niedermayer Jr. [cite web | url = http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/players/profile?statsId=662 | title = Rob Niedermayer | publisher = ESPN | accessdate = 2008-02-17] (born December 28, 1974) is a Canadian ice hockey centre with the Anaheim Ducks of the NHL. He is the younger brother of fellow Ducks defenseman Scott Niedermayer and cousin of Edmonton Oilers defenseman Jason Strudwick.

Career

Niedermayer was drafted 5th overall by the Florida Panthers in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft. At the time he was playing for the Medicine Hat Tigers of the WHL. He started his NHL career right away, without playing a game in the minors. During the 1996 NHL season he set career highs in goals, assists, and points in the regular season. In the playoffs, the Panthers went on an improbable playoff drive to the Stanley Cup Finals, before being swept in four games by the Colorado Avalanche. Niedermayer was hurt by concussions in the next years and has never been able to achieve the same level of scoring ability again. His NHL role soon turned into a defensive forward.Fact|date=February 2007

On 23 July, 2001, Niedermayer was traded from Florida to the Calgary Flames with a draft pick for Valeri Bure and Jason Wiemer. He did not last long in Calgary, and at the 2003 trading deadline he was traded to the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. That same year he helped Anaheim make an improbable run to the Stanley Cup Finals, his second such run. But again, Niedermayer's team lost, although this time it was in seven games to his brother's team, the New Jersey Devils.

In the summer of 2005, Rob's brother Scott was signed by the Mighty Ducks, and for the first time in their NHL careers, the two brothers were playing on the same team.

Rob Niedermayer and his brother Scott won the Stanley Cup together as members of the Anaheim Ducks defeating the Ottawa Senators four games to one in 2007. In a break from tradition, Scott, who had won three Stanley Cups with the New Jersey Devils, handed the Cup to Rob after taking his lap around the Honda Center ice. Custom dictates that the alternate captain who has waited the longest to win the Cup (in the Ducks' case, Chris Pronger) get to skate the Cup after the captain takes his lap.

Rob married his wife Jessica in July 2007 and they welcomed daughter, Brooke on April 25, 2008.
