Someone's going to have to clarify.
Maybe there's something in the CBA about arbitration amount and trades, but that clause is regarding walkaway rights. A team can walk away from a >3.5M$ arbitration award, which makes the player a UFA immediately.

Beck never made it to arbitration and was traded before hand so there is no money amount
not much to clarify.. Dater was talking out of his ass... nowhere it says that a player cannot be traded before the hearing.
Yeah and Beck didnt qualify for that which didnt make him a UFA so his rights coud be traded.
To be fair, Dreger said the same thing this morning. There's nothing in the CBA that I've seen regarding this issue.

yeah no ..
Beck AVOIDED the arbitration altogether and signed with the new team before the hearing.

He knows he'll get more if he doesn't go to arbitration or what? Why wouldn't you file? Must be a reason.
The same article i was reading stated the same thing Dater and Dreger stated
"Teams and players are not bound to enter into arbitration. If the team and player agree to any legal NHL deal before the arbitration starts, then the signing of the SPC which follows voids the need to go through arbitration. Teams may not trade players who are pending an arbitration hearing."

What are some of those players going to argue in the arbitration case? Whats Jared Coreau, Jordan Schroeder, Jordan Weal going to argue in favor if themselves. That they have played a game?

And it's not true apparently.
Unless the league dropped the ball that one time and Taylor Beck will now have to cycle backwards through all fourteen teams he's played for since that trade.

BUCH
Dater just said that a player can be traded if he has reached a contract agreement with his current or new team lol.
Bottom line is that he can still be traded.
Dater basically said that Beck and Nashville already had a contract agreed upon and signed and then he was traded, THEN the contract was announced to the public.
So, Barrie can be traded if he agrees to a contract with the Av's. Basically sign and trade lmao.

I think people/the media are confusing the trade rules where an offer sheet has been signed by the player and not yet matched by the team (not allowed) and the trade rules or lack thereof after a player or team has filed for arbitration. As far as I can tell from the CBA, arbitration has no effect on the ability to trade a player.

Shero has stated that they were close on money, it is just the term still being worked out. I'm sure they'll come to a deal before arbitration.
