I didn’t really pay attention to the audio, but I’d be shocked if all these kids haven’t already been drafted, so he’s almost certainly the property of some NHL team. Probably what they meant.
Almost all of ‘em are drafted already but playing junior hockey or college (1-2 are not old enough for the draft yet). I vaguely recall that one of ‘em is playing NHL. It’s not an amateur tournament, so that’s not an issue. Either way, one can play a certain number of pro/NHL games before losing amateur status and having the pro contract kick in.
