The fact that both the NHL and the NHLPA agree that he wasn't eligible would mean they would have amended the rule long before it ever went to court. I'm pretty sure Feaster checked with Daly before proceeding. Like I said, the guy's a lawyer. This is what he does. The fact that someone on Sportsnet caught it before he did is borderline ludicrous.
