Comparing PWHL entry deal to NHL contracts, out of CHL deals are nominally 3 year ELC. But FA college players, older, often negotiate/are offered shorter deals. Some drafted college graduates also offered shorter ELCs.

There is no equivalent CHL system for PWHL, just college grads.

But this is interesting.

Fillier is already 24 - a 24 year old NCAA UFA signing an NHL ELC would only sign for one year. 22-23 year olds sign for 2 years. Easy enough to see why she'd rather get to free agency faster.

Cart...horse? Gatorade must know something that the Sirens' GM doesn't.
