Because they end up traded before and sign with their new team.
See Cutter Gauthier and Rutger McGroarty in recent times.

Knies would of needed to play 2 more years of UFA, to go back in the draft,
UFA wasn’t a concern with him,

Says who? Why don't you provide the list of American college players who forced their way out of the Canadian market in recent memory...

Why, I never insinuated he would want out, I said there was no worries of him going to UFA, 2 years out. If he got into his fourth year, sure then there is concern in the fourth year, but definitely not after 2 years.
Especially being friends with Matthew’s.

You are ignoring that we saw another case play out literally last week of a player needing 2 more years to be UFA but having leverage to force their way out. The longer teams wait the less value these players have.
Again, why don't you please show us a list of American college players in recent memory forcing their way out of teams before UFA status because that is an obvious implication of the urgency to recover value..
And also again, why don't you tell me why the other example I used also got NHL games after signing despite not being an NHL player. Almost like, these guys wanted to be in the NHL as a condition to signing (similar to the Jets situation hmm)

Should have known he was really really injured the moment he decided he wanted to be a Leaf. Huge red flags.

Those insiders were saying there wasn’t even an ounce of cartilage left in his knee

Wasn't the original contract a two year deal or am I misremembering, it was months ago...

Some guys have names that seem to make them predetermined to be bottom pairing NHL defenders. Hakanpaa is one of em.

We don’t count ounces in Canada. He has enough grams left to make a go of it
