Henrik Lundqvist reportedly is off to Washington.
The veteran netminder is expected to sign with the Capitals on Friday, according to Göteborgs-Posten's Johan Rylander. The move comes a week after the New York Rangers bought out the final year of his contract and ended their 15-season relationship.
Lundqvist, 38, spent all 15 seasons of his NHL career with the Rangers. He is a five-time All-Star and a 2012 Vezina Trophy winner. He also has been named to the 2012 All-NHL First Team and 2013 Second Team.
The NHL currently is eying Jan. 1 as a potential start date for the upcoming season.
