Added more links to the Link References tab. If you wanted to learn or know more about NHL contracts, NHL Drafts, Player right's, etc., I found these articles very helpful as it's written in layman terms.
In the 3 highlighted links as shown, some of the topics include:
-When are players eligible to be drafted by the NHL
-Length of time a team keeps the rights for drafted players (Canadian junior/US college/European Players)
-When players can sign NHL entry-level contracts
-Where players can play once drafted and (if applicable) signed
-How the entry-level contract works and the entry-level slide
-Restricted vs unrestricted free agents
-Offer sheets for restricted free agents
-Qualifying offers for restricted free agents
-Arbitration
-The contract process and schedule for restricted free agents
