  • value - contract total value
  • type - contract type code: 1=ENTRY LEVEL, 2=STANDARD, 3=35-PLUS
  • typetext - the contract type
  • expstatus - The contract's expiry status code: 0=RFA, 1=UFA
  • expstatustext - the contract's expiry status
  • ahlsalary
  • nhlsalary
  • pbonuses
  • sbonus
  • caphit
  • cyear - contract year signed (i.e., first contract year)
  • cage - contract age for a given year (i.e. 1 for first year, 2 for second year, etc).
  • cteam - the team code of the team that holds the player's contract
  • playedcteam - 1 if the player played for the contract holder in the season, 0 otherwise
  • playedcteaonly - 1 if the player ONLY played for the contract holder in the season, 0 otherwise
  • buyout - 1 if the player had a buyout in that season year, 0 otherwise
  • byear - the buyout year
  • blength - the number of contract years bought out
  • bamount - the amount of the buyout

Note that if a player played for the Atlanta Thrashers and the Winnipeg Jets, this counts as the same team.

Player's Data

The untransformed NHL.com codes used are provided for each view name in the display box. The transformation rules are replacements as follows: % -> pc, / -> or OR / -> per (depending on context), + -> plus, - -> minus, " " -> "", 1 -> one, and so forth.
