When a player puts pen to paper on a new contract, barring some extenuating circumstance that's usually the last you hear about it. But there are always exceptions to that rule. Today a rather strange situation surfaced after a veteran contract was announced to have signed a new contract.
While this announcement on it's own is not shocking, what did come as a surprise is that Kinkaid is already under contract with another team. Earlier this summer Kinkaid inked a 1-year deal with the Chicago Wolves of the AHL.
Additional details have stated that Kinkaid will likely be assigned to the Wolves if he's not on the NHL roster, but this process makes things much more confusing. While it's been announced the Devils may have an agreement with the Wolves, what happens if Kinkaid is claimed off of waivers by another team? This situation could get extremely confusing and fast.
