Word is that only FULL NMCs have to take up a protection spot.Island Nucklehead wrote:Callahan's got a NMC which has a limited NTC for 2018/19 and 19/20. Not sure if that means he retains his No-Move but has to provide a trade list. If he keeps the NMC that screws them come expansion time. Fillpula has a NMC with some form of trade protection as well. Kind of grey as they look like combination deals, ie they can't be waived but they can be asked to submit trade lists.Strangelove wrote:No doubt Garrison would be exposed in an expansion draft.More #nhl expansion draft info. sources indicate no-moves must be protected by teams. no-trade clauses not exempt and can be left exposed.
Callahan + Filppula as well of course.
I'd say Filppula gets bought out this summer.
Not sure how the bolts get rid of the cap-dump that Callahan has become.
Now there's a boat-anchor of a contract!
Boaty McBoatface.
I suppose they... could... buyout Callahan as well (lotsa money owed).
They might be tempted though because I think Callahan might have to take a protected spot (NMC - 2017 only).
(if a player has a limited NTC, that means by definition he has a limited NMC)
So Callahan wouldn't have to be protected if an expansion draft happens in 2018.
Not sure about 2017 in his particular case.
