It depends on how badly they want you, and where they think you'll end
up.
Generally, teams try to get as many players as possible signed to
"two-way"
contracts (those that pay less if you go to the AHL) rather than a
"one-way"
contract (pays the same no matter where you play). Players, of course,
would much rather get a one-way contract.
