RWJC Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 14 Players Elect For Salary Arbitration July 5th, 2024 at 4:32pm CST • By Brennan McClain Per Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman and originally produced by the National Hockey Leaguer Players’ Association, 14 players have elected for salary arbitration this summer. The deadline for team-elected arbitration is tomorrow. Friedman also notes the arbitration hearings will happen between July 20th and August 4th. To add context, not every one of these players will appear for a hearing with their respective teams as they may continue to negotiate on a new contract. However, each player who elects for salary arbitration is now prohibited from negotiating with other teams or signing an offer sheet. Here is a list of the players that have elected for arbitration: F Beck Malenstyn (Buffalo Sabres) G Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (Buffalo Sabres) F Martin Necas (Carolina Hurricanes) F Jack Drury (Carolina Hurricanes) D Jake Christiansen (Columbus Blue Jackets) G Jet Greaves (Columbus Blue Jackets) F Kirill Marchenko (Columbus Blue Jackets) F Joe Veleno (Detroit Red Wings) D Spencer Stastney (Nashville Predators) F Oliver Wahlstrom (New York Islanders) D Ryan Lindgren (New York Rangers) D Ty Emberson (San Jose Sharks) D J.J. Moser (Tampa Bay Lightning) F Connor Dewar (Toronto Maple Leafs) https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2024/07/14-players-elect-for-salary-arbitration.html#ref=home 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Necas filed for arbitration. That will force their hand if they are really planning on trading him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up until arbitration they can do whatever. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sometimes forces teams' hands into reaching a deal or trading the player to a team that thinks they can sign them before arbitration. Might see a couple deals happen before arbitration forces their hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing preventing a team from trading a player after an arbitration contract has been awarded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
