So if he signs and plays vs the Canucks, he can't play in the AHL? Wouldn't it be better for him to play in the AHL playoffs instead of playing the one last game of the season?

Because that would have been about 8:30pm Saturday night and it would be a rush to get him to Vancouver for the game at 8:00pm on Sunday.

Just think, if his signing is announced before Saturday night, we'll hear about it earlier than we would have if they went to the final.

But then he wouldn't burn a year off his ELC and wouldn't get the signing bonus.

That's part of enticing him to sign.... Dropping a year from his entry level contract.

Oh of course, but I meant more as in he wouldn't need a day or two to think it over even if the last game of the season was a week away. He wouldn't take time to re-think his decision.

Im doubtful for sure. He has had months to think about what he was gonna do when his season ended. I would think there is at least a very real chance that this doesnt get done.

Did you see the picture jg13 posted? All he's thinking about right now is the game he just played and that his season is over. I'd take a night to sleep on it to if I was that shaken up by the loss.

As has been stated before they may be waiting to announce until after the Hobey Baker ceremony so that they don't upstage it. I wouldn't worry too much until that is done with.

Welcome to the 21st century media. It's how Iginla was traded to Boston too.

Somehow Twitter became a reliable source for most everyone...go figure.
