ELC contracts are a maximum of $950K per year. However, they can also receive a maximum 10% signing bonus and performance bonuses not to exceed $3.5M. So players can make a lot more money if they perform really well. Our CBA factors these into the Cap Hits for where players were selected in the draft as opposed to real life as that would be too complicated to administer. The below link will give more info on how bonuses are earned. https://puckpedia.com/salary-cap/entry-level-performance-bonuses Gator may provide additional detail.

The Washington Capitals will be releasing the following players to free agency. Chandler Stephenson Sam Bennett Evgenii Dadonov Vladislav Namestnikov Nick Cousins Blake Wheeler Fredrik Karlstrom Tyler Madden

Pending the results of the Vegas/Dallas series here is the Washington Capitals roster for the 2nd round. WASHINGTON CAPITALS PLAYOFF ROSTER LW Pierre-Luc Dubois - C Pavel Zacha - RW Mitchell Marner LW Sam Bennett - C Chandler Stephenson - RW Jonathan Marchessault LW Evgenii Dadonov - C Thomas Novak - RW Morgan Geekie LW Nick Cousins - C Vladislav Namestnikov - RW Mason Appleton Extras: Carl Grundstrom LD Morgan Rielly - RD Adam Fox LD Darnell Nurse - RD Niko Mikkola LD Simon Benoit - RD Nicklaus Perbix Extras: Samuel Bolduc Adam Wilsby Starting Goalie - Adin Hill Back-up Goalie - Erik Portillo Black Aces: Blake Wheeler activated for round 2 Tristen Nielsen activated for round 2

Can't believe we hung on to 2nd place in the Pacific by less than 1 point.
