Why would they want to wait until next season if they could have him now?

Also, as long as there is more than one team he's willing to sign with (Blues - hometown, Sens - cap'n bro, Devils - Dad's cousin is the GM, etc.), if you know you're on the list, you'd want to get it locked down rather than taking the risk he changes his mind over the next year.

He could fall madly, deeply in love with a Calgary girl during training camp and decide this is where he wants to stay after all.
