Would it be too much to ask if they included players of note that are exposed?

 

Reilly Smith, Jon Marchessault, Jason Demers, James Reimer.

Lol I'm glad I got back on twitter. Vegas' twitter is pretty funny. 

 

Give us your tired, your poor....and a top 4 defenseman1f608.png Expansion lists will be released in 45 minutes!

 

 

That is flipping great!  They for sure will be taking Dumba who got exposed.  I'd be all about adding a top four potential 22 year old!

They also had a picture of the Vegas Statue of Liberty.

Protected list coming out after 10am.  Let the screaming begin,

 

Anyone else surprised by how few deal were made prior to the the freeze?  I think this may be partly team asking to much for guys like Vatanen and Brodin with the added face that trading one guy leads to losing two guys off your roster (one in the trade plus one to LV).

They create a buzz, they get people waking up on the West Coast at 7 am for this, they have people paying attention to hockey in June, and they it right up. How perfectly NHL.

Both Vatanen and Manson were left unprotected by the Ducks (Bieksa had to be protected). But again, belief is that Ducks have deal with VGK Per Le Brun

Minnesota unprotected

 

Scandella, Dumba and E. Staal among the unprotected for the Wild; Brodin was protected

I think I see three or four unprotected goalies that might be more attractive than Ullmark.

 

I also think Jack Johnson will be Vegas's first captain.

Montreal protected Benn over Emelin.  So many quality D available to the Knights (although expensive D)  They left former Sabres Ott, Mitchell and Flynn unprotected.

 

Colorado left Grigorenko unprotected. Florida left Marchessault un protected and protected Pysyk and Petrovic - stupid

 

Available D

Ana: Vatanen and Manson

Bos: Colin Miller and McQuaid

Buf;  Bogo ;)

Clg; Stone

Cbs; Jack Johnson

Dal; Hamhuis

I'd have to refresh on the Panthers knowldege. But the analytics-only GM is still in, right?    They only scrapped the coach last year?  [i misread and edited.]  Therefore keep Pysyk forever.

 

Also -- Kassian turned his playoffs work into a protected slot. Nice job, Herr Concept!

What's the over/under on players that LV take in the expansion draft and then trade this summer before the season begins?  Looks like there will be a lot of guys the other 30 teams would want, and we know LV wants draft picks.  If I'm them, I'm taking as many good, young, cap-friendly guys I can and then flipping them for draft picks and enough bad contracts to get to the cap floor.
