Quote:
Gaudreau is what’s known as a 10.2(c) player, named for the provision in the collective bargaining agreement under which he falls, which governs players with fewer than three years of professional experience. And even though Gaudreau’s three-year entry level contract with the Flames expired after this season, he doesn’t have three years of experience. That’s because when Gaudreau signed his deal out of Boston College after winning the Hobey Baker Award, the Flames played him in their last game of the season. That game, in which Gaudreau scored his first NHL goal, burned a year off his contract, but did not credit him with an accrued season of experience

So because he has fewer than three years’ experience, Gaudreau cannot be signed to an offer sheet. Nor does he have the right to go to arbitration. In fact, the only leverage Gaudreau has is to withhold his services if he can’t reach a deal with the Flames. It was the same situation in which Torey Krug and Jaden Schwartz, who will both become RFAs July 1, found themselves two summers ago.
