Not that it matters since it looks like he is good to go, but the age doesn't matter as much as when they sign and playing less then the 10 NHL games. There was something written back before the season started (It was Kent Wilson over at flamesnation) and it mentioned that Sven and his contract was eligible to slide. Tatar from the Redwings has had his contract slide twice. There is some very specific criteria that you have to meet, which Sven did.

Anyways, good to see him back. He is a fun player to watch.
