Can 7unogo sit out for 1,2,3, or 5 years and then say he is coming back?
I believe that team has to decide whether or not to toll the contract. In the case of Thomas the Islanders decided not to toll the contract and it expired accordingly, resulting in him being a UFA. In Luongo's case even if the Canucks don't toll the contract he will be a Canuck seemingly forever due to the long contract.
