Luck? Or a strategy?

The only way this helps their cap is if they can find another goalie for less than $5M (and if that goalie isn't as good - he won't be - then their team is weaker).
With Lehner on LTIR, they have about $6M in space. With that, they need 2 or 3 forwards, 1 D and a goalie.
And every other team knows that they are desperate, so no one is going to give up a tender on a friendly deal.
