Not really, they'll match any offer sheet, so I don't see it being a major issue. It would have to be a pretty outrageous offer for L.A. to let him go.

Hockey Hall of Fame - Class of 2011 - Your Call
MacK_Attack replied to MacK_Attack's topic in General
Today is decision day for Hall of Fame Class of 2011. -
I explained poorly. Players signing their ELC before the age of 20 need four years of NHL experience to be eligible for arbitration. So that excludes any player signing before the age of 20 from being eligible for arbitration when they come off of their ELC. So what it boils down to, Drew Doughty is not eligible for arbitration until next summer, but obviously he'll have a long-term contract before then.

Players signing before age of 20 need at least four years of NHL experience, which excludes any player coming off of his ELC.
-
I don't believe Doughty is eligible for arbitration yet.
-
It would have to be an absolutely insane offer for L.A. to let him go. It's a pipe dream to expect him to leave for another team via offer sheet.
-
That's precisely why L.A. would match an offer sheet.
-
Is that Twitter account reliable at all?
-
Lester Pearson strikes from beyond the grave.
-
Brule is out of the deal. Oilers have traded Colin Fraser and a 7th round pick to Los Angeles for Ryan Smyth.
-
According to Calgary radio, Robyn Regehr will NOT waive his NTC to go to Buffalo.
-
He's done quite well via the trade route. You know, as long as you ignore that little Kessel hiccup.
-
Leafs give up a 2nd round pick, according to Bob McKenzie. (EDIT: Boston's 2012 2nd round pick)
-
L.A. will now turn around and deal Ryan Smyth to Edmonton in order to make the cap work.
-
Gord Miller reports it's a done deal. Richards to LA for Simmonds and Schenn.
-
Now rumours going around that L.A. and Philly are close on a trade to send Mike Richards to the West.
-
Move just ratified by the NHL Board, meaning the NHL is now officially back in Winnipeg.
-
...and yet, Dean Lombardi has admitted to having talks with Edmonton. I think it's more of a case of Smyth trying to pour water on this in case he has to stay in L.A.

Sheldon Souray.
-
47 points. The cap hit doesn't really matter to the Oilers. In fact, it would help keep them comfortably above the cap floor. His salary is $4.5 million, which is probably not something the Oilers would be excited about, but probably not a deal-breaker. What about Smyth-for-Souray?
-
Leafs fire assistant coaches Keith Acton and Tim Hunter. They have hired Northeastern head coach Greg Cronin and former Isles head coach Scott Gordon as replacements.
-
You'd think so. The draft is 4 days later. I would imagine they'd like their 7th overall pick to have a jersey to wear.
-
Bob McKenzie reports MacLean and the Ottawa Senators are finalizing a contract for him to coach the Sens.
-
It's really no big deal. If he stinks, it's a 1/3 buyout because of his age, so it would be $300k per year. So why not take a chance? The kid earned the chance to take the ball and run with it. And obviously the hoping is Gustavsson just had a sophomore slump.
-
Apparently Bryzgalov wants to be more than just the highest paid goalie. He wants to be among the highest paid players in the league.
