After tonight, the Ducks will have 9 games remaining on the season and Cutters Boston College team is still competing into he NCAA tournament, so Cutter will play at most 9 games this season, per cap friendly
If a player who is signed to an entry-level contract and is 18 or 19 years of age (as of September 15 of the signing year), does not play in a minimum of 10 NHL games (including both regular season and playoffs; AHL games do not count), their contract is considered to ‘slide’, or extend, by one year. For example, if a player signed an ELC for three seasons from 2015-16 to 2017-2018, and their contract slides, their contract is now effective from 2016-17 to 2018-19. An exception to this rule is that if the player is 19 on September 15 of the first year of their contract, and turns 20 between September 16 and December 31, their contract does not slide.
He turned 20 in January 2024, meaning at the start of this season, he was 19, does his contract slide? Confused on the wording regarding "year" in the details.
Would be great if he is, that way Minty, Zells, Leo, Zegras, and him aren't all due for contracts in the same year.
