Quik 4,113 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Yukon, Canada- With mock drafts starting to come out for the S57 VHL Entry Draft, fans and players alike are taking notice as to what directions their favourite teams and players will go come draft time. Along with that, media has already started approaching players and asking what ideas they have about their futures, as the season passed the 1/3 mark recently. Reporters asked the Yukon Rush's 2 top prospects, Chase Keller and Mats Johnsson, about their ideas of the draft, and got some interesting replies. Reporter: Chase, where would you like to play when you move on to the next level? CK: Obviously, making the VHL will be a dream come true. I obviously have my preferences, but will play at least my rookie contract with whichever team takes me. R: It's been said you might not report if Cologne drafts you? CK: That's technically not a question. But Like I said, if they take me, I'll play my standard rookie years with them. R: Mats, what about you, do you care what spot you are chosen? MJ: Not really, if I go high, that's cool, if not, that means I'm probably going to a contender, right? R: What about preferences? Any ideas on where you want to play? MJ: My agent and I have some ideas. There's only one team I don't want to play for, but I won't say which that is. If they contact me, I'll definitely let them know. R: And if that team does pick you? MJ: I will sign a 1-year ELC with whichever team drafts me. If they're the team that picks me, that's fine, but no matter who picks me I won't be signing for longer than 1 season to start my VHL career.

But it still provides options. Or storylines. Either way, still not going to sign a multi season deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFA though doesn't really control their full future. They are still bound to contract rules in regards to rights. Thus an RFA doesn't control much besides their first year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way he said things in here made it sound like he could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
