Ideal Import Draft Pick Signing Timeline
I'm in my second offseason playing in the WHL, and am finding it hard to sign my import draft picks. I don't know if I've just had bad luck, or if I'm missing the ideal signing window for players. I'm used to playing EHM, where you can sign the player whenever, and they move at the end of the season, so I'm not super familiar with signing windows.
When should I be looking to offer contracts to import players for best chance of signing them? Also, is it possible to sign players right after they've been drafted, or do you need to wait a season? In my most recent draft, I picked two players that are playing on Canadian midget teams, hoping they'd be easier to sign, and they're "Not interested in talking to teams in the US at this moment."
Thanks!
