Yeah, I thought that's why teams can't sign an AHL guy because he was considered a "pro". Perhaps it's if you're not currently playing pro hockey, or had filed retirement papers or something, that you are considered an amateur again (i.e. unlike NCAA rules or certain Olympics sports where once you go pro, you're done).
