TSN: The New York Rangers have made the difficult decision and are expected to be buying out the final year of Henrik Lundqvist’s contract according to Pierre LeBrun.
” I believe the Rangers, perhaps as early as Wednesday, will announce that they have moved forward with the buyout of the final year of Lundqvist’s contract. And this decision would not come easy to the Rangers. Given everything Lundqvist has provided the Rangers as an organization, this was a tough decision but a decision that has to be made moving forward.”
Vince Mercogliano: “It seems the decision to part ways was fairly mutual.
