Players with Contracts ending in 2015-16 will be eligible if you sign them to a new contract extension and they remain on your team. Then starting at contract roll over in 2016-17 early August you can name your 2 Franchise Players who will get the discount.
Ok, that makes more sense. So, this is unrelated to extensions. I can give this to any player who is eligible. Like Ovie?
Ovie is a prime candidate!
Starting in 2016-17 when contracts roll over freshly in early August, FNHL is introducing the Franchise Player home-town discount.* Teams designate 2 players annually in August (contract roll-over period) * Max 2 Franchise Players any given time* Who qualifies (A) Drafted by the FNHL team (not acquired through trade of MiLR player) or (B) Plays for same NHL team as FNHL team * 25% discount* Players receive No Movement clause (No trade, No Buy out) - stays on the roster until off-season * Only valid while player plays for the team (a trade voids the discount)* Buy out during the off-season is applied to the discounted contract value* Designation on Team Page will be:Sidney Crosby, $4.2m (2012-2016-FP-5.6)Alex Ovechkin, $7.2m (2013-2018-FP-9.5)Claude Giroux, $6.0m (2014-2018-FP-7.9) Drew Doughty, $5.3m (2013-2017-FP-7.0)FP - denotes Franchise Player with 25% contract discount applied
