Confirmed with Link: [ANA/NJD] Brian Dumoulin (50% retained) for 2025 2nd round pick and Herman Traff

[Hockey Duckie]

Just realized they need to sign the kid before July

Verbeek has to have already spoken to his agent, right?

Because Traff is a Euro draftee (not Russian), then we have four years to sign him after his draft date. Capwages and Puckpedia has his 'Must Sign By' date at Jun 1, 2028. Our own Lucas Pettersson was draft in the 2024 draft and he has the same 'Must Sign By' date as Traff.

I believe these are the breakdowns of 'Must Sign By' (MSB) dates for prospects

• CHL = 2 years to sign or go back into the draft
• NCAA = 4 years to sign; unless they go USHL first and then NCAA when drafted, then it could be five years like RD Ian Moore.
• Euro (non Russian) = 4 years to sign
• Russian = indefinite

Thanks for clarifying the specifics!

short video, but i always like getting an inside look into these things.

I couldn't stop laughing when the league guy asked, with a straight face, if we had sufficient space to take on 50% of Dumo's contract. Hell we're barely treading above the cap minimum all year and we're getting back a draft pick and an unsigned guy playing in Europe. Does that guy work the war room in Toronto for video reviews too?

Pretty sure he was asking Jersey if they had room to take on his contract.

Didn't sound like that to me but maybe your right. I've wasted far too much time online today.

No worries ha. But he said something like “with 50% retained by Anaheim, do you have sufficient room to take on the contract for the rest of the season.”

Expect more of my best tomorrow after a short night of sleep and an early rise to catch TSN Trade Center.

This is the right move even if you wanted to keep Dumo, we're not contenders now we pretty much replaced the 2nd from the JD trade we gave up.

I love the idea of low cost trading for a grinder bottom 6 player compared to using a first to draft one like we did with gaucher. Save the firsts for high potential players.
