What took so long?

 

[SprDaVE]

Only a matter of time. I wonder if he'll join the Marlies?

Is the KHL done? If so I could see him playing on the Marlies ASAP

So he's burning years off his ELC while he plays in Russia. Interesting choice. Will cause his ELC to run out sooner, which will be more expensive in the mid term(4 years from now) but potentially less expensive in the long term since he'll like sign his 2nd contract before he's proven enough to get all that much.

Also gives us the option to have him play here after seasons end in Russia, and he probably gets the opportunity to make the team in 2022/23, and go to Russia again if he doesn't rather than signing a 2 year deal in Russia and not seeing NA ice until 2023/24.

He'll get into a game down the stretch. Book it. Keefe is about that life.

Don't the ELC years slide if he's playing in Russia?

The contract doesn't start until next season, he won't be able to play in the NHL.

am I wrong in thinking that since he’s being loaned it won’t burn a year of his ELC?

ELC years do not start until he’s with the NHL club or after 3 pro seasons

I believe they only slide if they're until 20, which this past season was the last one that Amirov would have qualified for. But I'm not sure if there's a Russia specific rule since they don't have a transfer agreement.

Andreas Johnsson signed his 3 year ELC and was loaned to Sweden and the contract started as normal. Like I mentioned above unless there's some Russia specific rule I'm unaware of I think the contract won't slide.

Same with Grundstrom

 

[JohnLennon]

Anyone know definitely whether or not this contract will slide? I'm seeing a lot of conflicting posts, and last year with KHL players having to burn years off their contract even not playing in NHL (Kaprizov, Romanov), I'm now unsure of the rule anymore.

My fav prospect..welcome home kid!

He isn't burning any years until 2022/23, which is good. He slides next season.

 

[Mickey Marner]

The slide would only have been the difference of ~30k. No big deal.

Good to have him signed. The developmental plan seems interesting.
