Lehner, who hasn't played since the 2021-22 season due to health issues, including a hip injury, acknowledged that while everyone involved understands his situation, he's unable to provide specific details. He expressed that he's waiting for matters to be resolved.
Lehner's comments suggest there's more to his absence than just his health, possibly hinting at broader issues that involve the NHL and NHLPA. Golden Knights GM Kelly McCrimmon confirmed Lehner remains unfit to play and that the team is working with the league and players' association to find a resolution.
Fans are understandably disappointed, as Lehner's performance was crucial to the team. As the situation unfolds, his future and the impact on the Golden Knights' salary cap remain unclear.
