PuckPedia Cap Central 3/27: James Hagens ATO + Leafs Trade Protection & AHL Eligibility

For Episode 14 of PuckPedia Cap Central, Keith Kavanaugh and Hart Levine dive into the pressing topics of the NHL salary cap world. They talk about James Hagens new ATO with the Boston Bruins organization (4:00). Keith had Hagens’ agent on The PuckPedia Hockey Show on Wednesday to get all the juicy details. This move gives the team and the player flexibility and the ability to continue playing hockey for their AHL team in Providence while they assess the possibility of signing his ELC. Then they get into the Toronto Maple Leafs complicated situation with their draft picks and trade protections on the 1st rounders they sent to the Boston Bruins and Philadelphia Flyers (13:00). Hart developed a flowchart on PuckPedia’s site breaking down all of the options based on where the Leafs fall in the NHL Draft Lottery. Then they talk about a new rule that Elliotte Friedman is reporting where 19-year old 1st round picks will be allowed to play in the AHL, a rule that previously did not allow that (25:00). Then they wrap up showing the PuckPedia PuckGM Draft Simulator and how it works (30:00).
