Educate me. What's the point of signing him now? Does this mean he has a chance to make the roster? If not, then why sign him?

Puts money in his pockets today, and the team control slides anyway. It's just a way to take care of these kids and their families sooner.
Slide can't be under-valued: by signing Soderstrom before the year he turned 20 (2021), the Coyotes were able to slide his contract: Victor Söderström Contract, Cap Hit, Salary and Stats - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

As a Florida Panthers fan, we were unable to slide Knight (same age as Soderstrom) and Lundell (draft year tear) at ALL because they were signed in year that they turned 20.

What did he buy? Horse people don't normally give up the horse life without extenuating circumstances.

He had two homes. The oldest two kids have grown up and he's been doing more and more with the league that kept him out of Phoenix after he retired. Running the horse ranch was becoming too much for his wife to do alone.

So the free labor moved out and Shane took a pay cut ..makes sense. I bet they made a handsome profit on the sale.
