Re: Expansion draft
I'm saying that he dramatically turned his game around after the Flames series and rounded into a steady 5/6 NHL defenseman...if thats what 3.6 mill a year costs then yes I'd say its a good move.Strangelove wrote:So what you're saying is that James Elmer Benning is a genius for re-signing Luca SbisaUncle dans leg wrote:Trymynapkin leaving helps but yes Sbisa had really turned his game around and I have been singing his praises all yearStrangelove wrote:So what you're saying is that Luca Sbisa is indeed a stalwart defenceman.Uncle dans leg wrote:Pedan starts the year on the bottom pair i suppose.Hockey Widow wrote:

Once again pretty sure genius status isnt warranted until the team gets out of the basement but I've definitely recognized that he isn't as bad as I thought
If you need air...call it in

Re: Expansion draft
A total of 35 players, including Clarkson, selected today. Hearing several more trades to be announced tomorrow as Vegas has, apparently, deals in place for three D'men.
leaves and Stars apparently two of them. Miller, not our Miller, rumoured to be going to leaves and Methot to Stars.
Get 10 picks between now and 2020 and give up two picks, so not as many as I thought but let's see what they get in trades. They end up with Islander 1st and Jets 1st. Keep their own obviously. Traded Columbus 1st to move up to get Jets 1st.

Re: Expansion draft
So as far as first round picks, Vegas gets the 13th and 15th overall this year (plus the 6th they own).
Buncha other picks as well of course.
Also grabbed a few top prospects... and a few fairly valuable trading chips.
I think McPhee could have done a lot better seeing as how he had some GMs by the short n curlies.
