It depends on his age when he signed his first nhl contract and the number of nhl games played. After a minimum # of games is hit based on when he first signed a contract a player must clear waivers anytime he’s assigned to minors. I’m having a hard time figuring out the formula for a guy who’s only played 4 nhl games and is 23 tho I admit it seems like he should have been exempt.

looks like he signed a 1 year contract that was one-way

2-way, maybe teams can send players through waivers anyways?
Otherwise theres no reason lol


Danick Martel signed a one year, two way deal, with the
@NHLFlyers
at $715 000.

One way and two way has nothing to do with waivers.

It's just a salary thing.

Yeah forget it hes 23 and just finished a 3 year contract lol

Under NHL rules, the Lightning are now obligated to keep Martel on their NHL roster to open the season. He must spend 30 days or appear in 10 NHL games

interesting they are forced to keep him on the roster for 30 days or play 10 games before they can waive him down to the ahl if they wanted
i never knew there was a rule like that for waiver claims o.O

Shea Theodore signs a 7 year contract with a 5.2 mill AAV,which leaves only William Nylander and Nick Ritchie without a contract going into final week of camp

Request a trade to a team with some defence?

I don't think it's as simple as dollars.

Very well could be a conflict of personalities. Another Drouin situation, where he thinks he would be more valuable given the opportunity to shine.

Problem with that is that he has an equal chance to fall flat elsewhere as he does to shine.

Young and dumb once, gotta remember these are 23 year old kids
