(Discussion) Trade 5th to Vegas for unprotected player?


Recommended Posts

Are there any players on the unprotected lists from the other NHL teams Vegas can take in the Entry Draft you would be willing to trade the 2017 5th overall pick for straight up?

 

- Sami Vatanen

- Matt Dumba

- Calvin De Haan

- Brock Nelson

- Ryan Strome

- ?

why would any team leave a player of that value unprotected

makes no sense

they'd have traded such a player already or will protect that player

How would they protect them other than offering better than the 5th overall.  There are some good RFA's and young players available.

you do not understand how the expansion draft works

or which players are protected and why

i'm sure there are many teams you can identify that have left a player unprotected who is worth the 5OA pick in this year's draft :wub:

 

we'd all love to see your list of such players i'm sure

Why don't you name an unprotected player you would trade the 5th overall for.

This approach would have made for a substantially better thread.

 

I notice that the OP has been edited and there are a few names there.  None of which are worth the 5th OA pick.

It should have read, are there any unprotected players that would be worth trading for, as Vegas can claim a player and then trade that player. In fact those discussions are taking place right now.

No. But I'm a little surprised that FLA didn't get a good enough offer for Marchessault. I was hoping we'd be able to poach him for Bear and a 2nd or something along those lines. 

Would we be able to offer our 2 seconds for him if LV selects him i wonder?

I'm sure they would do that deal.... I'd prefer it to be Baer an the 55th incase last year was just a blip. I think other teams might have a hard time matching that offer.

All these teams/players likely have pre determined deals with the Knights not to touch them...
