If S. Kostitsyn were to re-enter the draft...

[Ford Prefect]

From what I have read, there has been good progress on getting him signed to a rookie contract. If however he doesn't get signed by the deadline, where would you see him being drafted?

because that is what team always do

can you name 1??

i know it has happenend to some goalie once but i cant remember anyone else that was picked by the same team twice.



edit: i found it mathieu chouinard was picked twice by ottawa. #15 in 98 and #45 in 2000. looks like they picked the same guy with the pick they got in compensation for not signing him.

Because the player has all the leverage the first time - as he can threaten to go back into the draft - but the team has all the leverage the second time. If Kostitsyn wants to play in North America, he would have to sign with whoever re-drafts him or wait another two years.

i knew about chouinard, but dagenais was new to me, but anyway. i dont think that kind of things happens all the time. there are guys re-entering the draft every year and it has happened two times (that we know).

i see, but i still dont understand why you would want a guy that doesnt want to sign with you. allthough i dont think thats the case with kostitsyn. i believe he will sign and not re-enter.

i just did

doesnt look like he made the right move. he was picked 5 times

last time he was picked #1089 overall. i had no idea they had so many rounds in the MLB draft.

oh, man did he loose some big time money on that stupid stuff

He dosent sign because he thinks he can get a better deal. When you draft him again...either he waits out again...or he signs. Chances are he wont want to wait again.
