LGR4GM Posted September 22, 2019 Author Report Posted September 22, 2019 He's not on loan from a Euro team. He's only chl eligible until next season when he's 20 and can go to the AHL. 1 Quote

He was assigned to Rochester late last season, though he didn’t play a game. I thought this was the Cozens thread...Pekar can go to Rochester next season. Quote
Brawndo Posted September 22, 2019 Report Posted September 22, 2019 Stupid question, Why would the NHL-CHL Agreement apply to Pekar when he was originally selected out of the USHL in his draft year? He wasn’t even drafted by Barrie until the 2018 CHL Import Draft, which was held after the NHL Entry Draft. Quote

If he was in said draft isn't he an import? Quote

Either way he’s in Barrie until their season is over. Quote Another exception is if an NHL club drafts a player out of a European league, and then the player joins one of the CHL leagues after the NHL draft. Since he was property of an NHL team before he joined the CHL, he isn't bound to the transfer agreement. This is a rare occurrence though, as most players drafted out of European leagues continue to develop in the European league before moving to North America. https://www.dkpittsburghsports.com/2019/06/24/nhl-chl-transfer-agreement-faq-rules-penguins-tlh/ Edited September 22, 2019 by Brawndo Quote
Derrico Posted September 23, 2019 Report Posted September 23, 2019 The way nylander ‘developed’ in the A, I have no problem where he’s playing. Let him rip up the chl and stay healthy this year young man. He’s a couple of years away but for a 94th pick from a couple of years ago I’m fine with where he’s at and where’s he’s playing. Quote
Eleven Posted September 23, 2019 Report Posted September 23, 2019 This kid is going to be a Sabre. Not right now, but he will be. And we will be glad for it. 4 Quote
Curt Posted September 23, 2019 Report Posted September 23, 2019 My favorite Sabres prospect. Love his playing style, love his personality. I think both are something this team could seriously use. For a 4th round pick to be signed to an ELC less than a year after being drafted, and to rise to prominence as quickly as he has, it says a lot about him I think. 1 Quote

Very shrewd on his part. 1 Quote

I seem to remember a quote earlier in the summer from Botterill that they preferred him playing in Barrie instead of the AHL, so that's where he was going. The one thing I'm not completely sure on though is that since he's not subject to the transfer agreement, they should be able to call him up if they really wanted to. While I do agree with your statement about him being there until the season's over, I don't believe that there is anything legally holding them to that. 1 Quote

inkman Posted September 24, 2019 Report Posted September 24, 2019 I think Barnaby is a reasonable ceiling. If he can pester and chip in 15 goals and 30 points, he's be my favorite Pekar. Let me tell you, I really like the one I got too. Quote

WITH Barnaby's scoring touch would be fine. 10-15 goals and 15-20 assists would be fantastic for where he was drafted. 37 minutes ago, Eleven said: He will be the next Brad Marchand and you all will perish from your unbelief.
