Rangers Agree to Terms With Ryan Lindgren

 

[Joey Bones]

If I'm not mistaken, he will report to Hartford on ATO/PTO....

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Great news getting him in to the fold. Wish Hartford streams were cheaper.

That Drew Cove tweet says he signed at ATO with the Rangers, not Hartford. It could be a mistake, but it would be cool if he's up with the Rangers so we can see how he looks.

Could replace O'Gara immediately

O'Gara was a throw-in piece that was a short-term fit here.

He's been garbage.

I don't believe he can sign a try-out with the Rangers.

I think he can.

ATO, PTO What? A Primer on Hockey Contracts

ATO- this is an Amateur Try-Out agreement, and is for players who are coming in from college and have never played at the professional level. These type of contracts are common at the end of the season as many players try to break in to the pro leagues after the college or junior season is over. The ECHL, AHL and NHL all use ATOs.

I remember when the Flyers had some injuries one year and had no cap space they used some ATOs to fill their roster, but I don't remember anyone using them like this before.

Sadly it's done its job and gotten him some much needed pub

I will never see another post he makes, however.

 

[NYR]

So what's the general consensus?
Can he play on the big club or he's strictly AHL bound?

Actually I think The Mouth would be a Lindgren fan. Just a hunch.

Maybe it was just because of the playoffs, but the Rangers had to burn a year from Kreider’s ELC for him to play in for us in 2012.

Much needed pub?

How? All it’s done is gotten people to rip ongim for his horrible opinion and lack of cleverness. I doubt he got any extra listeners for his podcast or followers on twitter.

He cannot.

(b) Amateur Try-Out Agreement. Notwithstanding Section 11.1(a) above, a Club and an amateur Player will be permitted to execute the form Amateur Try-Out Agreement ("ATO") annexed hereto as Exhibit 17 under emergency conditions as set forth in Section 13.12(m)(ii). The Club shall submit to Central Registry and the NHLPA, in accordance with Exhibit 3 hereto, an ATO form signed by the Club and the Player. The League shall use reasonable efforts to approve and register, or reject, the ATO prior to the NHL Regular Season Game in which the amateur Player is scheduled to play and shall provide notification of such approval and registration or rejection forthwith to the NHLPA and the Club, and the Club in turn shall notify the Player, in accordance with Exhibit 3. No Player shall play in an NHL Regular Season Game pursuant to an ATO unless and until approved by the League

It has to be an emergency.
