Miller Brock Boeser Bo Horvat Jake Virtanen Adam Gaudette I know each team can only protect 5 forwards.... Pretty sure its 7 forwards, unless something has changed. Last I checked "Current NHL teams can protect seven forwards, three defensemen and one goalie, or eight skaters (forwards/defensemen) and one goalie, under the following conditions. " from NHL.com If it was 5 then JV gets left out but seems like a moot point since we can protect 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seattle take VIrtanen who is utterly useless or take Demko a young likely top goaltender in the NHL for years to come.. hmm. Tough decision. Not only that but you can protect 7 forwards 3 defensemen or 8 skaters. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demko is a huge lose compared to Virtanen. but Jake doesn't suck. He's on a 0.5ppg pace and looks like a great fit with Roussel, and is really using his body to his advantage this year on the boards, finally. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even bingo bango bongo as Larscheid used to say. Loui isnt going to be traded. He's not going to Seattle as an expansion pick. We're not paying to get rid of him, outside of maybe a final year buy out. I do think he's Utica bound very soon and then he can consider if he likes it there or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If LE doesn't get sent to Utica, then we can really assume there is a gentleman's deal in place to keep him up here, and he retires after his July 2020 bonus. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be fine with that, if thats what they had worked out. Pay the rest of his salary as a "special consultant" same as Luongo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy is turning into a valuable piece. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason why he is constantly benched. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
