from mlive www.mlive.com/redwings/stories/index.ssf?/base/sports-1/1153960815177550.xml&coll=1"Markov's signing relegates Lebda to seventh on the team's defensive depth chart. After he plays 18 more games with the Wings, Lebda can't clear waivers, making him a candidate to be assigned to AHL affiliate Grand Rapids early in the season. "In the early going, if Lebda is the odd-man out, we can send him down to make sure he's playing,'' Holland said." |

A one way contract only determines how much a player is paid, not which league he plays in. Those quotes were from Ken Holland, the wings GM, made after the signing. It would not surprise me in the least to see Lebda spend some time this season in GR.

It says a player would make $500,000 or whatever price at the "N", and make say $120,000 in the "A".
**I just made up the prices**
Edit: Or atleast thats what I think it means.

Coyote you are dead on. A two-way contract specifies different salaries at two different levels of play, in most cases one amount for the NHL and a much smaller amount in the minor leagues. Prior to the new CBA their were a lot of players on Three-Way contracts that would give them one amount for the NHL, one amount for the AHL and an even smaller amount for the ECHL.
Again the name of the contract only applies to pay scale, a player on a One-way contract can still beassigned to the minor leagues, he just keeps getting paid his NHL salary amount.
