A note on Lundqvist, his actual salary in the last year of his deal is $4.5M. To buy him out only costs us 1.5 against the cap over two years if his play has fallen off.

But he's been a .920 guy for his entire career. Again, I think it would be an option worth considering, albeit a complex one to make work
I can't see any team giving a goalie 10m. Price will land somewhere for 6.5 to 7. Even if he ends up with the same annual salary anywhere else, it's a pretty significant raise for him because of the ridiculous Quebec taxes.
