I thought a player either has to play 7 years or turn 27 before June 30th to be a UFA, or else they are a RFA. I thought college free agents were no exception. But Im not surprised if I'm wrong.
And what do you mean he is a UFA and still will be one. He just signed a contract and isn't a UFA.
This stuff sometimes goes over my head lol, thanks
I believe that the exact section of the Group 6 section D. They are draft related UFA's
"Any Player not eligible for claim in any future Entry Draft pursuant to this Agreement and not on a Club's Reserve List shall be an Unrestricted Free Agent. Further, any Player eligible for claim in the Entry Draft, but who was unclaimed, shall be an Unrestricted Free Agent subject to the provisions of Section 8.9(b). (ii) Each Player referred to in subsection (d)(i) above shall, during the period of his Free Agency in accordance with Section 8.9(b), if applicable, be 30 ARTICLE 10 10.2-10.2 completely free to negotiate and sign an SPC with any Club, and any Club shall be completely free to negotiate and sign an SPC with such Player, without penalty or restriction subject to the provisions of Article 9 of this Agreement, if applicable, and without being subject to any Right of First Refusal, Draft Choice Compensation or any other compensation or equalization obligation of any kind."
So because 21yr olds are no longer draft eligible if they have not been drafted they are UFA's. I said he will stay one because you implied that after his 2 year deal he would be an RFA, he won't he is a UFA from now on. He can sign contracts with any team after his current deals expire. So in a year (July 1, 2016) Bailey can sign with any team or he can resign with Toronto but Toronto on july 1 2016 doesn't have RFA protections for Bailey. Bailey is a UFA in the same sense Josh Gorges is a UFA, they are not protected by anything once those contracts expire, they can just walk and sign anywhere.

Agreed. The only way to justify this mess is to say that it's about one player.
Sam Reinhart?

Your post was wrong. What else do I need to say?
You could, I don't know, explain why you feel it was wrong.
-
Wrong.
Holy this post was prophetic! I mean I can barely comprehend the insight that this inspirational bit of wisdom has imparted to the Sabrespace community. Like Moses reading the 10 commandments for the first time while thousands of his followers stood hungry in the dessert, this post is epic and biblical in nature. I feel as though I have been saved from the precipice of ignorance by your profound and ingenious take on this difficult situation. Thank you so much for showing me the light.
That right there is and always has been the discussion/debate. It doesn't take two+ years to do that.
It does. It takes time to make those trades and it takes time to insert new players into the lineup and get them up to speed.

People have been repeating this over and over because it fits their narrative, as well.
The same people who are saying that this has never been about getting one player are the same ones that say unless we get that one player these two years have been a complete failure. You can't have it both ways.
It isn't about one player. If we don't get McEichel the tank is still over and the two years were still worth it to clean house and rebuild a middling team of underachievers.

Grigorenko had 12:47 TOI and was 53% at the faceoff dot. Kid has consistency questions but I hope this summer he can take another leap forward in progress.
-
Not that we necessarily care but I have noticed in the media the last week or so (especially after we beat Boston) that they are laying off of Buffalo about the tank but really starting to notice how hardcore Arizona is about it.

chucke cheese don't count as fine dining
It's dinner and a show. Not to mention some of the bet box wine 5$ can buy.

Sorry, I wasn't clear, I meant after his contract expires next year. It is a 2 year contract through 2015-2016. But after that is he a RFA or UFA? I believe he'll be 25 then?
He's a UFA today and will still be one in 2 years. His age doesn't matter because of college free agent rules.

And Edmonton lets a CHL get away in OT. Way to go!
Woooo at least 1 team is helping us out.

I'm fully expecting a very ###### adjuster.
You're fully expecting a very
adjuster? -
If you're going to restaurants where (and when) parents are comfortable bringing their kids, you're doing "being young" wrong. :)
Trust me I am doing it right. :flirt:
-
Arizona is 16-1-1 (1-16-1 in normal parlance) in their last 18. That doesn't even sound possible.
What are we?
-
Im not sure if he is a RFA or UFA after next year?
Bailey is a UFA today now.
-
just was made official. bye bye Bailey, we already have a RW with your name anyways.
-
I just want to know what the kid is thinking. I don't mean by not choosing buffalo but by selecting Toronto. You will be 2nd fiddle to Phil Kessel and you are an American playing for a Canadian team. Whatever works I guess.
-
The leafs are a mess. If that is where he wants to go whatever.

Can you put this in the Bodhi thread, too?
lol why not

I can't wait for McEichel to become the Bass Pro of draft picks.
idk what this means...
-
eh a Winnipeg newspapers claims they robbed us, whatever. Kane hasn't played a single game. Bogosian has been fantastic. The key part of the trade is Armia, Lemiuex, and the 2015 1st. Those three pieces can't be properly evaluated for another 3 years at the earliest. Right now I am content with the trade.

this is a cripple fight.

Well here we go kids, the ultimate draft spreadsheet. http://thehockeywriters.com/2015-nhl-draft-rankings-war-room-march-madness-edition/
Take a look see where everyone is ranked. Play around. Notice that there are actually players outside of the top 2 who we can draft! It's crazy!
How far would you go

No it is about getting top end talent. It doesn't have to be generational. It just has to be top talent. Chicago wins Stanley Cups without generational talent. LA did too. Boston did. Carolina did. It is about trying to acquire 2-3 top end talents, Marner, Strome, Hanafin also fit that bill. Sam Reinhart is another player that fits that category. Yes it is great if we get McEichel, but the point of the rebuild was to get top end talent which is something we did not have.
