Wtf? Why now?
Why not wait for his Liiga contract to run out?
It does nothing in regards to him playing in Liiga. He can still play there.

He gets early incentive with the signing bonus, we just get it out of the wayYeah or else it makes no sense signing him now.
Im not sure what you’re trying to do to be honest
He’s not NHL ready.Why not give him a chance? Play him between byron and Gallagher. You can’t go wrong Centring these 2.
They show up every game. Great role models
Shelter his minutes. Play himHe’s not NHL ready.
Shelter his minutes. Play him
With Gallagher/Byron/lehkonen. Guys who don’t take days off.
It won’t hurt
Does that mean his bonus will be on the cap this year even if the contract slides or did I misunderstand ?
Pretty sure it just doesn't count on the cap anymore.Does that mean his bonus will be on the cap this year even if the contract slides or did I misunderstand ?
Does the ELC starts when it's signed or when the player starts his first pro game?
The contract slides unless he's playing North American pro. It specifically says ''North American.''
Can someone explain what the point of this signing is? I get that he can play in Finland, but shouldn't we have waited until he was ready to come over? Doesn't this mean he will play in the NHL/AHL next year? He should play 1 more full year in Finland.

Oh I thought it did burn the years. That's why I was concerned.It could be nothing more than a Goodwill gesture, who knows.
All I care about is that this contract does not appear to burn his entry level years, unless he actually plays here.
