To the best of my knowledge he has an NHL contract, was sent down to junior, was with the Spitfires when the AHL roster deadline passed…But is playing for Coachella in the playoffs.
Does him most recently playing in the OHL have him playing under a different set of rules regarding roster eligibility? Most junior players who join the AHL team are on ATOs and don’t hold a NHL contract.

CHL players are eligible to join their affiliated AHL clubs after the end of their junior seasons. Same way Parker Bell has been playing for the Wranglers.
