The grievance hearing has yet to be scheduled between the NHLPA and NHL over whether the Swedish defenceman Jonas Frogren should be signed to a entry-level contract or not by the Toronto Maple Leafs. The players' union contends that because Frogren is 28 years old he should not be subjected to the restrictions of an entry-level pact.
Frogren, 28, will begin the season being paid under the commitment of the two-year, $2.13-million (all currency U.S.) deal originally signed by the two sides last week. The Swede's contract includes a $755,000 signing bonus and salaries of $475,000 this season and $900,000 in 2009-10.
