plenzmd1 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I have not listened to the above link yet, but see on the ESON scroll Vatanan and Lindholm both need shoulder surgery and both will miss start of next season. Hmm, wonder how that affects the Ducks plans and any potential trades involving their D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess not? bbb... nope Elmira became their affiliate a few years ago and got crap for players and as I said last year had the worse team in the league. Not surprising since the Amerks sucked also. All these draft picks both minor league teams miss the playoffs again, where are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the tank years, all I kept reading about was all this talent in the pipeline...........Any chance that Elmira will get another team soon? I think Binghamton folded but got the Albany team right away in the AHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is true, think it helps that GMTM is gone and so is his loyalty to Lehner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbb Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 NCAA rules are much different. Remember the Jimmy Vesey sweepstakes? Yeah, I thought he played 4 years at Harvard?

I thought with Eichel, his choice was to sign with the Sabres or play 3 more years at BU? It's been actually 4 years since the Sabres drafted Petersen. With him declaring for the pros, they'll have 30 days to sign him. Would have held his rights for another year if he was headed back to ND.

Would have held his rights for another year if he was headed back to ND. So the rule is 4 years you have the rights?...............If he went back to ND, we'd be in the same position next year. That's why I was hoping he wasn't going back - I thought that meant he would definitely be coming to the Sabres. I thought next year was the only way he'd be a free agent.

Alaska Darin Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 According to Article 8.6©(iv) of the CBA, the drafting club shall retain exclusive rights for the negotiation of his services until the later of: (a) the fourth June 1 following his selection in the Entry Draft, or (b) thirty (30) days after NHL Central Registry receives notice that the player is no longer a bona fide college student.
