no Kovachuk as a linemate this time around.

New Jersey does a sign and trade with LV.

Kovalchuk - Shipachyov - Guy

Should provide LV with enough offense to at least not be a complete joke next year. Also, watch LV win the Stanley Cup next year >_>

Even though he has a higher PPG than Kovalchuk does in their time playing together...

 

Format: (Points) / (Games played)=PPG in their 4 seasons together

Shipachev

(32+54+60+76)/(52+49+54+50)=1.08

Kovalchuk

(40+55+49+78)/(45+54+50+60)=1.06

In the past, expansion teams have provided big opportunities for guys to step up. Wouldn't be surprised to see a few new star players break out in the league next year for LV.

If McPhee got him without a NTC and can flip him for a 1st round pick to a contender in season 2... man this could be a good move. 

Deep thoughts here,.  But hereing that the KHL is becoming weaker financially and some teams possibly not operating this season,.  I wonder how Team Expansion in the NHL affects the KHL? 

What if, HYPOTHETICALLY..  the NHL expanded 3 new Teams over 3 years.. Let's say that creates 75 new hockey player positions..

Could that not possibly draw 15 -20 decently ranked players out of, or possibly labeled for the KHL?

Thats gotta hurt.

they will have 30 goalies to choose over in expansion what are u talking about 

I'm poking fun at the tweet, most proposed lineups have two slots for goaltenders as well and their tweet is lacking.

Wonder if there's going to be more Russians signing here.  K.H.L. can't be in too good of financial shape, and anyone who signs here with any semblance of skill will likely have a top-6 forward or top-4 D (or starting goalie) role, ahead of all the salary cap fodder and over-the-hill veterans who will eat up a lot of cap.

Oh and you're talking about Vegas here.  They want $$$, they'll have that in spades (and hearts, jacks and clubs).
