If the playoff race comes down to the last couple of games and Hughes is a major player down the stretch drive, would Green keep him out of the lineup? I get the feeling that Green is pretty much an assistant GM at this point and that he is being involved in the roster decisions more than most coaches would be. But is that a decision that needs to be made between the management group? or is Green going to have that call? It's a hypothetical, but it's something that has a small chance of happening. I would hope Green and JB work together, and review players every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fecklund Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 2 hours ago, Where's Wellwood said: Players with NMC must have protection spots used on them whether you want to protect them or not. NTC don't affect the expansion draft status Correct. NMV means a player cannot move NTC means a player can't be traded So any player with a NTC can still be left unprotected and be claimed and moved to an expansion team, whereby one with a NMC can't.

As long as Michigan beats a lower ranked team in the first round he shouldn't be done until at least March 16, and if he misses the back to back on the 17th and 18th then there are only 9 games left (no playoffs). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see Edler pushing hard for a NMC, just so he doesn't get snagged by SEA. C'mon Eddie, it's only a 3 hour drive lol does, erikkson have a ntc, we can convene seattle to take that contract on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, then give Pettersson and Boeser NTCs with their next contract. I don't want these guys going anywhere. Can't give RFAs NTCs. Although if the contract goes into their UFA years I think those years can have NTCs on them. 5 years of Nylander's contract has no NTC, but the final year does for instance. So the best he could do was get a verbal agreement from management that they wouldn't trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanless Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 3 hours ago, Alflives said: That's good. Thanks for the clarification. I'm glad Quinn will be exempted from the Seattle draft. I thought Boeser and Gaudette played less than 10 games, and still got a full year off their ELCs. Am I confusing burning a year off an ELC with the Expansion rules? Expansion rules are different. Do be eligible for expansion Hughes would need to play at least 10 games. Playoff games count toward this total. However, collage players that sign at the end of the season and play in 1 game have their first year of ELC activated and burned. This is why Boeser is up for a raise and why next year is gaudettes contract year. If you look back a page Alf there is a much clearer post about this subject Hope it helps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, they wouldn’t be. However, if Eddy has a NMC then we have to protect him regardless. I say, we let Eddy walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone should also tell Sportsnet that his first name is actually "Quinton" and not "Quintin". Changing the topic, going through the first few pages of the thread... It's Quintin, not Quinton.

As a Canucks fan I hope they do well Alf.

I think the adjustment from junior to the AHL is more difficult than from US college hockey. The junior guys dominate over 16 year olds. The college guys dominate over men. As for Palmu, I think he's just not good enough, regardless of where he plays. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One plus side of junior is there schedule is very similar in sheer volume of games and the scheduling of back to back games on the weekend. But yes college players usually play higher quality of hockey due to a higher age bracket, but the scheduling of games hits them the hardest..

If Lockwood signs he would likely do a stint with the Comets this year and Madden would be best off staying in the NCAA for another year and work on putting on a bit more muscle on that skinny frame of his 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
