‘Lydman’s family loves Buffalo and with no other team offering a three year deal, he was close to taking Buffalo’s offer. At the last minute, Anaheim offered less money, but more security in a three year contract so he took it. Lydman said, “It was hard at first moving the family to a new spot. It was tough, it took awhile for my mind to be all set, it didn’t happen over night, letting it go.”‘
