Henrik Lundqvist's days with the New York Rangers may soon draw to a close. He has spent his entire 15-season NHL career with the Blueshirts, but management could be ready to part ways with the longtime starter.
Lundqvist, 38, has one year left on his contract with a salary-cap hit of $8.5 million. But the Rangers are carrying two young, affordable goaltenders in budding star Igor Shesterkin and backup Alexandar Georgiev, and they no longer have room between the pipes for their aging star.
With his future in doubt in New York, Lundqvist could bring his long NHL career to an end by retiring.
