2019 Arbitration Figures And Results

August 6, 2019 at 7:30 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee 3 Comments

August 6th: All arbitration cases have now been completed. In total, six cases were decided by an arbitrator’s award this year. That number, though seemingly not many, actually presents a 50% increase over last summer and more than the past two off-seasons combined. Of those six decisions, the teams and players received the favorable decision an even three times apiece, and each award landed within $150K of the midpoint. All things considered, there were few surprises in arbitration, even though there were more awards than expected. Now the question is where the relationships between those teams and players go from here.

Originally published on July 19th: Friday marked the start of the arbitration season in the NHL, with Brock McGinn first scheduled for his hearing with the Carolina Hurricanes. The appointments will come fast and furious after that, with 23 cases left on the books. When we asked our readers how many would actually get to the hearing stage more than 36% of voters thought 3-4 was reasonable, the same number that reached last year.

We know now that at least one will, as Andrew Copp’s agent Kurt Overhardt told Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Free Press that their camp will “look forward to” the hearing scheduled for Sunday. Copp and the Jets exchanged figures earlier today. It is important to remember that the two sides can actually work out a deal in the short period after the hearing and before the actual decision is submitted by the arbitrator. For every case except Ville Husso, who the St. Louis Blues took to arbitration, the team involved will be allowed to choose the duration of the contract awarded. They can choose either one or two years, unless the player is only one year away from unrestricted free agency, at which point only a one-year deal is available.

Here we’ll keep track of all the hearings still on the books and the figures submitted. This page will be updated as the numbers come in:

    Call me bias, but, I am not seeing any updates on arbitration info for Travis Konecny, Ivan Provorov, or Scott Laughton, the latter already having settled prior to.

    Konecny and Provorov are both not arbitration eligible, and as you say–Laughton reached a deal with the Flyers before his hearing.

    Rittich will sign as he will be given bulk of load in Calgary with Smith off to the Oilers. Buchnevich will be interesting as he is rumored to be on move as free agent or trade , so the Rangers can start working on this soon, and a little more house cleaning coming soon. Bennett I believe will resign but still gonna be a hard deal as was looking at his earnings and contract . Will be tough decision coming in Calgary.
