A contract which pays the same regardless of whether the player is assigned to the NHL team or to the NHL team's minor league affiliates, as opposed to a "two way" contract which assigns different pay rates depending on whether the players is assigned to the NHL team or to the NHL team's minor league affiliates.
It depends on the type of contract they have. A two-way contract stipulates the amount the player would make playing in the NHL, and a different amount if they were playing in the AHL. So a player might make $525,000 in the NHL but only $65,000 if hes laying in the AHL. A one-way contract however only has a single salary. So no if he's making $545,000 in teh NHL and is sent to the AHL his salary would still be $525,000

An unsigned draft choice occurs when a team pics a player in the draft but does not sign him. Often players remain in juniors after drafted, that team just wants dibs on him. A player that has been "taken " in the NHL draft has the choice of siging a contract with that team or NOT. If he does not sign, another team has to get permission from the drafting NHL team to try to sign him instead. If he signs with the second team, that team has to pay a compensation amount to the original drafting team .
If you are looking for salary/year. Brad Richards with his new contract playing for the New York Rangers. 9 Year contract worth $12 Million per Season. However, you then get into sponsor endorsements which would probably put Sidney Crosby tops.

The league average for a player nowadays is approximately $2 million US per year. Entry-level players, that is players that are new to the league, are limited by the league to sign contracts under $1 million per year for their first contract. The top paid player for 2008-09 was Dany Heatley who received $10 million in the first year of a five-year contract. The contract was 'front-loaded', meaning he received the highest yearly amount in the first year and his salary goes down year-by-year. Each team is limited by a 'salary cap' set by the NHL, which sets a maximum that a team can pay its NHL roster of players. In 2008-09 this was $56 million US. Players who are injured or on the minor league 'farm' team are not counted towards this figure. The average time that a player is in the league is between five to ten years. There are over 600 players in the NHL.
