Mikko Koskinen says goodbye to the Edmonton Oilers.
The goalkeeper, who is due to become an unrestricted free agent next month, has signed a two -year contract with HC Lugano of National League A in Switzerland.
Koskinen has spent the past four years in the Alberta capital. He was 83-59-13 with a .907 save percentage and 2.98 goal-against average.
Finn signed a $ 2.5 million contract before the 2018-19 season after a successful stint in the KHL.
The Oilers later gave him a three -year extension for an average annual salary of 4.5 million.
Koskinen has appeared in several games this season due to injuries suffered by Mike Smith. He finished the season with a 27-12-4 record, a .903 save percentage and a 3.10 GAA.
The 33-year-old was a second-round pick, 31st overall, by the New York Islanders in 2009. He only played four games before returning to Europe in 2011.
