Can someone explain restricted free agency for me

[Illinihockey]

In particular, if a player is a RFA and is given a qualifying offer then plays through the season on the QO, is he automatically a UFA the next season?

Also, when is a player eligible for arbitration?

Any help provided would be appreciated. Thanks.
