Does barlas get an extra year on his uni if he plays next year or is the deal done.
Basically how it works is if a player plays one game in the first half, they get one semester tuition paid. If they play one game int he second half, they get a second semester tuition paid.
Players with Gold Scholarships get full expenses paid.
All first round picks get Gold Package Scholarships.
The Standard Player Agreement if for their 16 to 19 year old seasons. OA’s typically renegotiate their contracts where necessary.
I can’t see a reason why any OHL team wouldn’t provide an upgraded package or maintain the existing Gold Package for their OA’s. Typically OA’s play an impactful role on your team otherwise why bring them back as an OA? But, how many players need FIVE years of scholarship? I am not too sure it matters in Barlas’ situation. As soon as he steps on the ice in January, he will have qualified for a full four year scholarship.
