NEW YORK (AP) - The New York Rangers avoided salary arbitration with Henrik Lundqvist by agreeing to terms on a one-year deal Wednesday with the Olympic gold-medal winning goalie.
Lundqvist, a restricted free agent scheduled for an arbitration hearing on July 24, will earn $4.25 million next season. He made $817,000 last season.
The two-time Vezina Trophy finalist will be in line for a long-term contract after next Jan. 1 that will impact the 2008-09 cap instead of this season.
