Rink and Run had the details of Stalock's contract and even if Alex only plays in the AHL next season 62,000.00 is pretty good start to a post college career.
His two-way contract will be worth $62,500 if playing in the American Hockey League and $630,700 if playing in the NHL, plus an annual signing bonus of $85,000. Its possible Stalock may be assigned next week to San Jose’s American Hockey League affiliate in Worcester, Mass.

It's not very often that you see a goaltender leave school early for the pros, not to mention two now in Stalock and Bachman. Things are going to be ugly in Duluth next season. They have 9 seniors that graduate, Oberg just left as a sophomore, and now Stalock is gone. That's 10 players of 18 on their active roster that have left now. I am starting to think that St Cloud may be a serious contender next season seeing 95% of their team from last season is returning...
