I was wondering if someone could give me some information about how the NHL draft works? I think I understand a UFR is someone who has finished their contract, so they can sign wherever they want? If someone has been signed, and it was through, for example, 2009, is that person required to stay with that team until that point? I was looking at a player I am interested in and it says he was signed to his team for 2001-2009. Does that mean he stays there till the end of the 2009 season, if he doesn't get traded? Can he even be traded?I have so much to learn about hockey!
