Yup.

But scroll through CapFriendly; there are "$0 rights trades" that happen all the time with no signings.

Caulfield's not gone until a signing announcement.

Well if true then good luck to Judd, nothing against him but I hope the jump to the NHL will give him that jump in his game. His time at UND was certainly interesting for me as he would show glimpses of his potential but then would go MIA for long stretches. All signs point to him signing.

Unfortunately he’ll has AHL/ECHL written all over him. He may get a game in this year however. I would assume that’s part of the deal.

Team can't catch a break this offseason.
Gonna be a whole different team next year.
I still think the offensive group will be elite.
Just gonna be a whole new group of player numbers to remember...like half the team.

The team was 3 games above .500 on the season and we’re grumbling about some new faces on the roster? Maybe next year’s Houston Texans can be better than this year’s team…they just need the exact same players back.  That’s not how it usually works, is it?

I believe he would become a free agent in August. If a team trades for his rights, they must think they can sign him. 

I thought so too but the langauge says College Eligbility.

For collegiate and college-track players, NHL teams hold the rights to drafted prospects for the duration of their NCAA eligibility. In the case of a player who spends his draft-plus-year in an amateur junior A league such as the USHL before starting college, it could be a five-year signing window.

@The Sicatoka

The old John McKay (Tampa Bay Buccaneers) line, right?

”What do you think of your team’s execution, coach?”

”I’m in favor of it…”

Nice! These boards might be easy to follow for a while before the super-experts memorize the new roster and revert back to entire sentences comprised of nothing but numbers. 

Now, get off my lawn.

Remember, a lot of these portal guys are gonna have a good chunk of offers and that includes visits to UND. I get things are stressful, but we all gotta calm the eff down lol.

I was being facetious. Just impatient for hockey news.

Oh yeah, as soon as we have players, a roster, and jersey assignments, and we can memorize all of it, we're going right back to saying things like " ... rather kept 20 than 13." So there.  Nanner-nanner-foo-foo!

Maybe Judd doesn't see that mess as appealing?

He certainly could be.  Sometimes very bad teams have one or two very good players, and that would include goalies.  People with more intimate knowledge of his skills, character, and daily performance would probably know.
