Guest Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 LEAGUE ANNOUNCEMENT In looking at prospective expansion draft lists, I have noticed that some teams - as they stand - will not meet the requirements for the draft. ALL teams MUST expose at least: - One defenseman who is under contract in 2017-18 and has played in 40 or more NHL games the prior season OR played in 70 or more NHL games in the prior two seasons. - Two forwards who are under contract in 2017-18 and have played in 40 or more NHL games the prior season OR played in 70 or more NHL games in the prior two seasons. - One goaltender who is under contract in 2017-18 or will be a restricted free agent at the expiration of his current contract immediately prior to 2017-18. If the club elects to make a restricted free agent goaltender available in order to meet this requirement, that goaltender must have received his qualifying offer prior to the submission of the club's protected list. Any teams found not to be able to meet that requirement will have their GM removed and may have draft picks sent to Las Vegas by way of compensation. FYI, the main cause of failing to meet the requirements is that you are first required to protect players; in so doing, some teams do not have any eligible players remaining due to the sheer number of rookie and rookie +1 players on their teams.

Better prepare yourself for multiple offers for your 4th round pick... 32 4th round picks in this year's draft. @thejazz97 has 16 of them, @canuckledraggin has 3, @wallstreetamigo has 2, and @Jam126 has 2. That leaves just 9 other GMs in possession of a 4th rounder! Wow! ...If I was a young free agent, I'd be wary of a team having such a future log-jam of talent...

Tampa has several players available for trade that will fill these requirements and are happy to take rookie and rookie +1 players back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Columbus places Andrej Nestrasil on the block. Available for a late pick. Impending RFA who meets the exposure requirements for forwards. Had a very good season last year, and since going to the AHL this year is performing well, with 10GP, 4G, 7Pts, +3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 In Tampa news, real life callups for forwards Peter Cehlarik and Marcus Sorensen. Nice to know both are on the radar for their big clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol There is only like a handful of teams that it even applies to, and its because the metro basically drained their assets repeatedly. Not that it matters. I'd say the onus is on those who need to make trades so that they don't lose assets to expansion and not vice versa. Super easy to sign or trade for Expansion Fodder. It's another thing to acquire expansion protected assets from other teams. Vegas is gonna have a fun time picking from metro teams, who have basically assembled All Star game rosters.

I personally don't care enough about losing a good player in expansion to try to build my team around it. It's just a cost of doing business to me. I will minimize the risk where I can but it doesn't rule every decision I make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salter Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 @Captain Azzy For the expansion you require players who are under contract for next year, does this apply to fantrax contracts or real life contracts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Jay 22 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Now is probably a good time to mention that Dallas is in the market for a pending UFA on a playoff team.
