Tweet of note: Carter Bear’s contract details via PuckPedia

The Detroit Red Wings signed Carter Bear to a 3-year, entry-level contract on Thursday, and PuckPedia has the details of said contract:

Bear can no longer play in NCAA hockey as he’s considered a professional athlete as soon as he inks a pro contract, but, as PuckPedia’s Tweet notes, the contract’s ability to “slide” affords Detroit a significant amount of leeway in terms of his development at the WHL and (in all likelihood) AHL levels of hockey…

So he received a $97,500 signing bonus and a nice $500,000 performance bonus, which boosts him up to an NHL-max $975,000 entry-level contract.
