Ottawa traded Dadonov to Vegas and failed to properly inform Vegas.
Vegas not know he had a M-NTC tried to trade him to a team on it.
Friedman: Arvidsson and Henrique have previously unknown NMC's, will make moves more difficult for EDM

Hilarious, predictable, embarrassing, and entertaining.
A team in need of defense and goaltending for years and years, adds nothing but old, soft, expensive wingers, and the fan base/media cheers and jeers how they won the offseason and have the most stacked fwd group in history.
Meanwhile joe nobody could see the error in philosophy right from the jump.
Incroyable.

...as did CapFriendly at the time of the Dadonov issue in Vegas...apparently it's a HAND WRITTEN LETTER SEALED WITH THE TEAM'S INSIGNIA that has to be given to every member of the Management Staff...

It's been a few hours since Friedman tweeted it, some were saying that it didn't say it yesterday, and very likely could have been updated since Friedman tweeted.
edit: they updated the page this morning

They traded Dadonov to Vegas ( wasn’t on their list), then a year and half later Vegas tried to trade him to Anaheim, but couldn’t because they were on it.
The story was at the time, player hadn’t submitted updated list in time. (Turned out that wasn’t true)
So Ottawa loses a first,
Neither had NMCs showing when I was looking at PuckPedia around the time the last startng goalie to EDM thread was posted.

It should for marginal players. For what they provide, there are players that could have been had without the strings.

Giving out NMCs is just a way to give your market a leg up on signing the players you want. Albright giving all of Skinner, Henrique and Arvidsson NMCs doesn’t seem like the smartest plan. A couple of these guys were said to have taken a 500k discount in Edmonton, we now know why.
they didn't a couple weeks ago when I was looking, I remember because I pinpointed them as the only cap dump options where they would not have to jump through hoops

Well when the bar is “Jeff Skinner”, its hard to draw a line when guys like Henrique/Arvidsson lay out their terms
Yes it was a Russian player I think. They traded him and didn’t notify him or ask him to waive. Trade got cancelled. I think it was a trade with Anaheim I think
I think Ottawa knew lol and they just assumed he’d be ok with it cause the team was so bad. And maybe he was ok with it but legalities weren’t met

No because the Oilers only have 4 forwards without trade clauses and 2 of them were signed by other teams. All of them make 1m per year.

Not quite accurate

The story was at the time, player hadn’t submitted updated list in time. (Turned out that wasn’t true)
So Ottawa loses a first,
All because the league didn’t have a central DB for contracts, where teams could check. League wasn’t able to verify players NTC’s.
Reason for league not having a central DB, they said was because players don’t want their NTC teams being leaked. Idiotic league doesn’t keep track of them.

Unbelievable that people still aren't clear about what happened with Dadonov.
Nope.
Nope.
Nope.
Yup.
Yup.
Summary: Ottawa gave Dadonov limited NTC (M-NTC). Ottawa did not inform the league of this clause, nor did it inform Vegas of the clause when they traded Dadonov there. The clause was "revealed" and upheld by the league when Dadonov complained about the subsequent attempt to trade him to Anaheim.

...so CapFriendly just guessed and got it right...no wonder they went Corporate...

Arvy looked great at the 4 Nations and his game is well suited for the playoffs. I'm happy with him. Henrique is a UFA at $3m. Why is this such a big deal?

Nice. While I do understand why they've been handing out NMC's like candy, it tightens the possibilities what they can do at the deadline. Not thrilled at all with the orgs business.
That being said, Henrique isn't a problem, he'll be important in the playoffs. Arvidsson on the other hand, I have my doubts..

Because previously, they could have moved them as cap dumps to take on larger contracts, now they can't.
Henrique is also not a UFA, they both have 2 years, and the Oilers are locked in to paying them a combined 7m for the next 2 seasons, which could have been used to upgrade in net or on D.
Skinner is the UFA at 3M, but he also has a full NMC.
Is Edmonton really trying to trade two vets they signed last summer who are playing well and exactly what you need for the playoffs?
If it was Arvidson or Henrique and a pick for Rantanen with retention I could see why this is a big deal. But otherwise why are they trading these two?

They have nobody else to move to clear cap space, the entire forward group has NMCs and they should be looking to add a top 4 D and a goalie.

The league doesn’t get informed of any players contracts NTC/NMC lists. There is no central DB on NTC’s. Therein lies the whole problem. Players didn’t want their list to get leaked, so league has no knowledge,
Lebrun did a radio hit and discussed it I remember, and said because of this they might look into keeping track of the lists, but it never happened.
Dumb the league does not get informed.
Good luck explaining anything to this guy. You'll need to draw pictures and speak very slowly. He thought $1.75 million for 20-something games of Klingberg on a tight cap team was "free."
