Confirmed with Link: Devils re-sign Mattias Tedenby

[day1devilsfan]

Rooting for Teddy & JJ to have a great year!

 

[Holtz My Bahls]

Age/experience thing. Tedenby is no longer immune from waivers, so the absence of a two-way contract is sort of irrelevant.

I figured, could it be that players are exempt for the length of the ELC they have? Or is it after a certain number of years?

 

[ScottyK]

1-way and 2-way deals both deal with waivers, it's an age thing IIRC?

Waivers is a age/experience thing.
1 way and 2 contracts have to do with money.

2 way deal there is a different money amount for playing in the ahl.

One way u get paid the same in both leagues

Interesting, I wonder how long a player can be exempt from waivers.

 

[tsipka]

I think it's something like 80-120 games.

Hope he plays well.
If he gets sent down, he will definitely be snagged by someone on waivers since he's on a 1 way contract.

I think this is the first year he has to clear waivers, but it has nothing to do with a 1 way contract.

I still havent given up on this kid 23 year old.

Admittedly, he's no longer a fetus, so you cant use that excuse anymore, but he is young and seemingly moronically stubborn. If Tedenby loses the stubbornness and agrees to listen to the people who have forgotten more about ice hockey than the sum of what Tedenby currently knows, I think he could break through.

This is a brilliant description. Absolutely true, well put.

How on Earth is he stubborn?

 

[BrodeursCups]

I wouldn't call it stubborn, it's more like his hockey IQ is extremely lacking. He is brutal position-wise in the d-zone and his decision making with the puck in the offensive zone is questionable. Too much hot dogging and turnovers near the blueline..

 

[Cowbell232]

Because he hasn't conformed to the style of play the Devils are clearly trying to play. He definitely seems stubborn to me.

 

[Balance]

There's nothing stubborn about a lack of size/weight to be a regular in the NHL.

 

[I Hate Tie DOMI]

Happy is is back.

I don't think he'll be paid $600K to play in the AHL. If he doesn't make the team out of camp, he'll go on waivers and I'm certain another team will claim a former first round pick who has speed and skill, but needs an opportunity to play with a longer leash so he isn't terrified to make a mistake and be bolted to the bench the rest of the game.


PS. Why does Renauld Lavoie know more about the Devils than Chere or TG?

This exactly, by no means stubborn. I saw a Tedenby that was really trying to fit in last year, almost too much.

 

[Bleedred]

Why was this a one way contract? I'm a little baffled because they're usually not given to players who haven't been able to prove they're able to stick in the NHL yet.

He took a $275,000 paycut to get the 1-way. And at this point if he doesn't have it, it's only a year. He can be traded, waived, discarded in some other fashion. It's very low risk.

I'm not worried about the risk at all. I just hope this doesn't mean he'll be forced onto the team again just cause he's on a one way. I really can't see them paying him all that to play in the AHL either.

He has to clear waivers to go to the AHL. I don't think he'd clear, for all his faults it's too high reward/no risk for another team to grab him. He'll ride the bench if the NHL isn't working...

I'm just hoping there's other moves to be made like maybe one in UFA? Even if it's an amnesty guy. I'd expect Josefson gets a one way also, I would have thought he'd also get a two way but I would have bet he'd get a one way before Tedenby would. Maybe Lou has a good idea that Clarkson is on the way out?

Tedenby could be like the 2013 Pierre Dagenais I guess. He was picked up off waivers I believe by Florida after we waived him. If Tedenby had a two way though, would he still not have been waiver exempt?

I want the Tedenby-Josefson-Clarkson line reunited

What are you talking about? This move has nothing to do with anything else going on.

A 1-way or 2-way or Tedenby has nothing to do with his waiver status.

The difference between a 1-way and a 2-way contract is solely the amount a player is paid in the NHL versus the AHL. Waiver exempt status is unrelated to 1-way or 2-way contracts. Tedenby now has too much NHL experience to be waiver exempt.

exactly.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Technically I think Teddy didn't really take a pay cut compared to the least two seasons. He was making $65k in the AHL but he's guaranteed himself a big paycheck with the one-way deal.
