That's exactly what it means. It's worth noting that the Habs have this type of agreement in quite a few of their two-way contracts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And nothing wrong with it as it is a useful inducement to get the player to sign and costs nothing on the cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody picked him on waivers because of the one-way contract, so he asked for the contract to be terminated. The Habs then signed him on a contract that reduces the AHL salary from $700K to $475K. Niku took it because he wants a second chance at an NHL career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomh009 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Apparently the Habs had some spare #15 sweaters floating around for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holdovers from the Petteri Nokelainen collection, I presume. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
