I don't think he cared about the term, he wanted the huge bucks, and the only way to get that from a cap standpoint was to front load it with a long term where he obviously would retire towards the end, or the beginning as we've found out. The contract structure is a bit weird, first 2 years he was making less than the cap hit, and the typical front loading wasn't seen until this past season, 3rd year of the contract.

So yeah, I still say there's as much the Devils pushing him to leave/retire as he wanted to walk away himself. Obviously Lou will never admit to it, but its essentially a free buyout for the team without costing them any money or wasting a compliance buyout. The 15-20M/season in the KHL being dangled no doubt makes it easier too

If I had the choice of making 20 mill vs 11 mill a year while living in St. Petersberg I'd probably do it as well. Easier choice for him since all of his family is there.

The timing of Kovalchuk's announcement is horrible too. Now NJ suddenly has some money to spend on free agents. But oops, the "best" ones have all signed with other teams!

One of the biggest dick moves of all time!

Pretty much. I think we'd all do the exact same thing if we were in his position.

I've heard so many stories about how much of a bitch she is. Too bad, because Lu seems like a genuinely nice guy too.

It won't be the last time they do it's all about putting lots of asses in seats and making $$$$$$

I'll watch it on TV, better view, more comfortable seating and if I want to take a piss I only have to walk 20 feet and don't have to wait in line.
