I'm sorry - this is inexcusable.
I know that most of us don't work in a place where perfection is expected, and that mistakes are going to happen time to time. This isn't in any way comparable to that.
This isn't some obscure 3rd paragraph traded conditional clause. This is the signing of a player to an NHL contract - the premier hockey league on the planet..
The lawyers and agents working on this make 6 figures plus. Basic mistakes like this mean you can't trust them with the big stuff. Because clearly they are outsourcing it to interns or are drunk, or some other stupid reason.
Heads need to roll here. It's not as bad as Feaster trying to give away O'Reilly and our first rounders, but its total negligence from a group of people who are supposed to be the best in the world at what they do. I'm surprised that some of you seem so forgiving about it. This is the sort of thing that competent successful organizations don't do.
