Figured I post this here for a quick answer.
So the Sharks got Evander Kane for a 2nd that becomes a 1st if he re-signs as a Free Agent this summer. My question is, if the Sharks trade his rights to someone wanting his negotiating leverage for a 5th 6th round pick before July 1st like we often see....but that team doesn't sign him and he signs back with SJS on July 1st, what happens?
Do SJS still owe Buffalo a 1st instead of a 2nd? Could the league retroactively nix the trade on grounds of 'pick circumvention'? Has there been a situation similar to this one could point to for comparison?
