I think it is implied from his status as an unsigned college UFA. Some people have rather uncritically assumed from the analogous situation with Justin Schultz that, like Shultz, all players who do not come to terms with their draft team must be looking for an early payday and guarantees of NHL ice time. Many of the same sorts of things were presumed about Johnny Gaudreau before he signed his contract this Spring.
Fortunately, I suspect that not every young player is like Justin Schultz.
