In the CBA, section 12.6 Walk Away Rights;
It only says that "if a Club has elected..." and nothing about a player elected, in reference to the figure.

12.6. Walk-Away Rights.
(a) If a Club has elected to arbitrate a one year contract,
and the award issued is for $550,000 or more per annum, then the
Club may, within 72 hours after the award of the Arbitrator is
issued (or if a Club has any other player still eligible for
salary arbitration at that time and for whom a decision has not
been rendered by an Arbitrator at that time, and the Club still
has a walk-away right available to it in such League Year
pursuant to paragraph (d) below, 72 hours after the award of the
Arbitrator for such other player is issued), notify the player,
the NHLPA and the NHL in writing that it does not intend to
tender to the player a Player Contract based on the award as
determined by the Arbitrator. Upon receipt of that notice, the
player shall automatically be deemed to be an Unrestricted Free
Agent, subject to the provisions of paragraphs (c) and (d) below.
(b) If a Club has elected to arbitrate a two year contract
and the award issued is for $550,000 or more per annum, then the
Club may, within 72 hours after the award of the Arbitrator is
issued (or, if a Club has any other player still eligible for
salary arbitration at that time and for whom a decision has not
been rendered by an Arbitrator at that time, and the Club still
has a walk-away right available to it in such League Year
pursuant to paragraph (d) below, 72 hours after the award of the
Arbitrator for such other player is issued), notify the player,
the NHLPA and the NHL in writing that it does not intend to
tender to the player a two year Player Contract based on the
award as determined by the Arbitrator. Upon receipt of that
notice by either the player or the NHL, the player and the Club
shall enter into a one year Player Contract providing for the
Compensation set forth in the award and the player will
automatically be deemed to be an Unrestricted Free Agent at the
conclusion of that one year Player Contract subject to the
provisions of paragraphs (c) and (d) below.
