Quoting: BeastModeUnknown
From what I have heard. Rangers are keeping Lundqvist and making Georgiev the odd man out.
I've heard the opposite. The Athletic had an article yesterday which said this:
"But where will Lundqvist be in October? Or November?
It won’t be at Madison Square Garden, unless there’s a press conference there to announce his retirement. He won’t be there to play on opening night, whenever that occurs, unless he’s there in a visitor’s uniform.
All signs point to The King being done as a Ranger, as unfortunate as that sounds. The reality of the situation supersedes sentimentality. And allowing players to retire in their uniform, while a nice, romantic idea, is generally bad business.
.....
There remains a slim chance another club makes a huge offer for Alexandar Georgiev and the Rangers decide to keep Lundqvist on the books (and deal other contracts to get under the cap), thus avoiding the dead cap space ($5.5 million this season, $1.5 million in ’21-22) the buyout would bring. Slim, slim, slim.
....
Another source, with some knowledge of Lundqvist’s thinking, said he knows that the goaltender is done with the Rangers."
I don't actually think the Blues should sign him or anything, but yeah I think he's done with NYR
