FREE AGENTS SUBJECT TO COMPENSATION AND RIGHT TO MATCH - GROUP 2

Players have been tendered a qualifying offer by their respective Clubs and are subject to draft-choice compensation and right to match. The draft choice compensation scale is based on compensation offered by the new Club:

OFFER                                           COMPENSATION
$1,110,249 or below                     None
Over $1,110,249 to $1,682,194    Third-round choice
Over $1,682,194 to $3,364,391    Second-round choice
Over $3,364,391 to $5,046,585    First-round and third-round choice
Over $5,046,585 to $6,728,781    First-round, second-round and third-round choice
Over $6,728,781 to $8,410,976    Two first-round choices, one second- and one third-round choice
Over $8,410,976                           Four first-round choices

UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENTS - GROUP 3

Players have qualified for Group 3 Free Agency (age 27 or older or with at least seven Accrued Seasons) and are Unrestricted Free Agents.

UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENTS - GROUP 6

Players qualify for unrestricted free agency, having met the requirements for Group 6 free agency. These players, whose contracts have expired, are age 25 or older, have completed three or more professional seasons, and (i) in the case of a player other than a goaltender, have played less than 80 NHL games (regular-season and playoff), or (ii) in the case of a goaltender, have played less than 28 NHL games (regular-season and playoff).

UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENTS

Players were not tendered a qualifying offer and are therefore Unrestricted Free Agents not subject to a right to match or draft choice compensation.
