Right, but under the terms of the new transfer agreement between Sweden's Ice Hockey Federation and the NHL, Lindholm doesn't have to sign an NHL contract until he is 22 before the drafting team loses his rights.
The kid probably planned on his contract ending after next season cause that is when he plans on coming to NA.
