Lefevre will have to pay the NHL if they want players using branded gear. An alternative is for players to wear unbranded gear. We have seen this most commonly in the past with spray painted sticks and at one point, there were goalies wearing unbranded Brian's gear.
I didn't want to get into the whole background on CCM vs Lefevre and the recent split-up, but yes, you're 100% correct. I think you'll see more goalies "staying" with Lefevre -- again, they'd rather stick with the gear (and gear-maker) they trust versus a specific brand name on the front.
