Starting with players drafted in 2015, all 1st round picks will be given 2 year ECHL contracts. Players drafted in remaining rounds will still be given 3 years ECHL contracts. These contracts will be based on CPHL draft position, not NHL draft position.

I think those are the contracts in the ECHL, not when we sign them to bring them up to the CPHL/AHL.
As an example, Jack Hughes had a 2 year ECHL contract. His is now up, and I would sign him for 3 years at whatever his rate is.
Sampo Ranta was a 3rd rounder, so he had a 3 year ECHL contract. His contract is now up at the same time because he was a 2018 pick.
I think that's correct but would like confirmation.
