Sam Craggs has also resigned with the Walleye. Brandon Hawkins has as well.

The Walleye also offered Lukas Craggs a qualifying offer, but that expired on the 22nd and I haven't seen anything further on the matter.

Just curious, what kind of money is made in the ECHL/AHL? Is it enough to survive on or is it like minor league baseball was where they had to rely on other sources of income?

Most guys work second jobs. Minimum $500 per week for rookies, $545 for returning players. I've been told the Walleye provide some of the highest salary in the league which is why they are so competitive every year.

Oh, and it's "re-signed," not necessarily "resigned." Sorry for any confusion.

Lukas Craggs got his degree today. Respect to the Craggs family for being true BG Warriors.

My favorite Lukas Craggs play that epitomizes what he brought to every game: https://youtu.be/Ht5gMv0GQZ0?t=52
