Didn't think the Blackwood pick would pay off so fast.

The CBA is inaccessible for me. What's the age limit for rookies? Will Olofsson still be a rookie next year?

Dang, so Olofsson won't qualify (barring season ending injury before 25 games) Back to the scrap heap.

Olofsson is eligible for Calder this year.

If you filter NHL.com stats for rookies, he's listed as one of them.

I mean for a keeper next year. This year keeper doesn't matter

Liking the james neal pick right now

 

[Kuzmenkshow]

Olofsson only has 10 career games played, so in that sense he absolutely qualifies as a rookie keeper. However, he will also be 25 at the start of next season, which is the reason he DOESN'T qualify.

Yep.

I think we're interpreting it a couple of ways.

I have it as if he was eligible for calder then he can be kept as a rookie for the following season. (calder eligible in 2019/20 = rookie eligible for 2020/21 fantasy season)
but now i see how you guys are explaining it like if he's eligible for calder 2019/20 then he's eligible for rookie status for 2019/20.

So we need to be even more specific? lol

I like your interpretation better for self-interest.

It seems like the 'OR' is being overlooked?

He would not be eligible under the (b) rules. But he is under the (a) rules. So he's eligible to be kept as a rookie.
Being 25 next season becomes irrelevant.

Yes, but if A was interpreted a different way then he's ineligible for both A and B.

 

[VanillaCoke]

I dont think thats happening but maybe

 

[CRDragon]

10am games tomorrow morning everyone, set those lines!

 

[archangel2]

hate making these moves so early in the week. Truly thought the oilers would add Bouchard to the line up and not just drag his sorry ass around for 3 games

 

[Kuzmenkshow]

Absolutely demolishing @Lucbourdon is a really fun way to start the season

[VanillaCoke]

Gusev and brannstrom are for trade

 

[Kuzmenkshow]

Playing Hart over Koskinen is going to bite me in the ass big time this week

 

[Balls Mahoney]

I'm wondering if I should save time and just go into Fire Sale mode now?
