Minor Pro Salaries

[AintLifeGrand]

If you're signed to an NHL contact, you don't have an AHL contact. If you're referring to your minor league salary, you're paid whatever is in your contract. If it's a one-way contract, you're paid the same regardless of where you pay. If it's a two-way, you have your NHL money if you're in the NHL or your minor leagues amount if in the minors (regardless of level). I don't even think they're a thing anymore but there used to be three-way contracts.

You do have guys on AHL two-way deals where they get one rate of pay in the A and another in the Coast.

so basically there are some guys in the AHL, who are signed to a NHL 2 way contract making like 85,000 in the Coast??


Are there any AHL guys making like $500k per year ONLY playing in the A?

Undoubtedly there are a few. If you are on a one-way ELC, you can be sent to the AHL and make your full NHL salary. There have been a few guys (Nick Stajduhar comes to mind) who were on NHL one-ways and ended up in the ECHL making their full NHL check.

I hope he bought the first round on every road trip.

The players lived in Pensacola Beach back then, too. It must have been disappointing to get sent down to a vacation.
