    100% the right move business wise. They need to develop the goalies properly, and having Lundqvist there stealing starts or creating a narrative of "why are you press boxing 8.5mill" would just be a distraction.

    100% the correct move, they did everything over the last yr to try and get it where he could stay, but no one was overpaying for Georgiev.

    If I was a player I would really admire a franchise that will make the right decision at all times, even if at some point it doesn't work out in my favor.

    I think the other thing to consider too is that Lundqvist signed a 7 year deal when he was 31 years old that was decently frontloaded. I doubt this is a huge shock to him and probably was discussed at some point when he signed the deal.

    Wrong - Ilya Kovalchuk is the ONLY super evil villain to ever frontload a contract to make eventual buyout/retirement less impactful!
