Alex Jefferies’ salary arbitration hearing is scheduled for July 30, per the docket PuckPedia obtained Sunday. The 2020 fourth-round pick posted back-to-back 29-point seasons with AHL Bridgeport and received a one-year, $850,000 qualifying offer from the New York Islanders before electing arbitration. The sides can settle at any point before the hearing; an award would be limited to one or two years, with the Islanders choosing the term. For fantasy purposes, Jefferies is a deep-dynasty watch only — the contract settles his status, not his path to NHL minutes.
