Nothing in the MOU seems to apply the changes retroactively, so it would appear that the new maximum contract lengths won't kick in until September 15, 2026.

This means that Andersson (and any 2026 UFAs) will still be able to sign 7-year contracts from July 1 - September 14 next year (and 8-year extensions prior to July 1).

It should also mean that players whose contracts expire July 1, 2027 will be able to sign 8-year extensions next summer prior to September 15.
