Does this mean he goes to Tucson?

 

[Jamieh]

Good to give the kid some spending money for his last year of Jr, helps him see the path clearer.

Does this mean he goes to Tucson?

No, CHL transfer rules apply. Not eligible for the AHL this year. Contract slides provided he is in junior.

Nope. NHL or CHL. ELC just slides a year.

Man I wished I made that kind of money when I was that age! Glad they signed him.

FWIW…. Habs are rumored to be sending Slaf to the CHL too.

The Erie Otters

It won't really matter as he will be traded to a team of their choice if true. But I think its Erie

Nah. That’s a goof.

You see all these social media posts and stuff on the signing.

BA Is one big dude. If we have too many injuries we may need him to play.

He’s Debo. How you think we get all those picks.

Ha, I noticed that when he was standing beside Lamoureux. BA must be 6-5, maybe 6-6.

Let's go!

 

[ck26]

Put some money in the kid's pocket but let him stay in juniors. 23 mins a game, PP, PK, dominate the CHL and we'll see you in a year.

Not an expert, but it will be the 95K signing bonus he makes this season then. But I still agree with you of course.

Oh, and ninja edit. They must feel mad when the contract slides as they don't get any more signing bonuses by then?

I don't actually know, but I'm speculating that the signing bonus gets paid regardless and does not slide. Only the salary and performance bonuses and cap hit slide.

That is correct.

The reason you sign these kids quick is just so they get the money now. Some of them actually need it.

So does signing him this early burn off any years he has with us ?

If we waited for a year or so , does that give us more time ?

No, his UFA eligibility is 7 years from his first 40 game season.
Contract signing has no bearing.
