I just don't know how much Johnny would benefit from 10 games in the NHL versus a potentially long AHL Playoff run.
From what I understand, would his ELC not change from a 3 year to a 2 year if he signs it entering his 21 year old season? I believe there's a smaller signing bonus.

Also a PTO is not a pro contract. If he's hurt, I'm not sure what insurance covers. There's also always the possibility of a career ending injury, preventing him to ever sign an ELC.
