Season-Ending Rosters may include a maximum of 20 players and cannot include any player who did not sign an ECHL contract during the 2025–26 season.

Each ECHL team is entitled to retain the rights to up to eight players on its Season-Ending Roster by extending a qualifying offer no later than 11:59 p.m. ET on July 7. Players who receive qualifying offers cannot be traded while the offer remains open. Teams are not required to issue qualifying offers to players who sign contracts before July 7.

Qualifying offers remain open until 11:59 p.m. ET on July 22, at which point any unaccepted offer becomes null and void. Teams that extend a valid qualifying offer retain the rights to that player for one playing season.

Players who have appeared in more than 190 professional regular-season games are ineligible to receive a qualifying offer.

For qualifying offer and veteran-status purposes, regular-season games played in the following leagues count toward a player’s professional games total:

North America

  • National Hockey League (NHL)
  • American Hockey League (AHL)
  • ECHL
  • Central Hockey League (CHL)

Europe

  • Czech Extraliga (Czech Republic)
  • Liiga (Finland)
  • Deutsche Eishockey Liga (Germany)
  • Kontinental Hockey League (Russia)
  • Slovak Extraliga (Slovakia)
  • Swedish Hockey League (Sweden)
  • National League (Switzerland)
