1-way & 2-way contracts are strictly to do with how much you get paid.
1-way: paid the same no matter if you're in AHL or NHL
2-way: paid different salaries depending on which league you're playing in
Waiver eligibility: (From Wikipedia)
Quote:
Once an NHL player has played in a certain number of games or a set number of seasons has passed since the signing of his first NHL contract, that player must be offered to all of the other NHL teams before he can be assigned to a minor league affiliate.
After a player has been designated for assignment, the other 29 NHL teams can put in a claim or waive their claim for that player.
