Okay, you still were spewing misinformation, Hanowski, yes, he could become a free agent at the end of this summer. Agostino however, he cannot, as we hold his rights till 4 years after he is drafted. So if he decided to graduate but didn't sign with the Flames, he couldn't sign with any other NHL team until summer of 2014. Why he would do that doesn't make any sense to me, and worrying about it is about as useful as worrying about any other draft pick deciding to not sign with the Flames ala Tim Erixon style.
